Look At Me Now
Persecuted, criticized, been denied and abandoned
Pushed away, given away, some days I couldn't imagine
Getting harder, getting colder, was hard for me to see
Tired of runnin, tired of hurting, even got tired of me
Tired of crying, tired of trying to forget my mistakes
Tired of being, in this storm, how much more can I take
Many nights in my life, tell me why
I shed more tears, my eyes would allow
And after all that
Look at me now!
I'm stronger this time around
Not because I was so good, but somehow
You looked past where I was
And you knew I'd come through cause You loved me
Look at me know!
So many didn't make it through
That's why this heart belongs to only You!
How can I complain bout the pain I went through
Cause it grew me
Look at me now!
Had no hope, had no future, even too hard to dream
No one told me, boy, you can be whatever you want to be
Then You saved me and You gave me reason to breathe again
Not perfect, y'all, but I'm gon' run
Till I make it to the end
(It ain't easy when your life's filled with wounds that won't heal)
And you fight through the lies trying to find what's for real
Everyone wants the prize but they can't stand the pain
The strength I needed it came that night I cried out Your name
To my people in the struggle, all my soldiers and believers
To my survivors of Rita, Katrina and even FEMA!
(All things are working together for our good)
Look at me now!
I'm stronger this time around
Not because I was so good, but somehow
You looked past where I was
And you knew I'd come through cause You loved me
Look at me know!
So many didn't make it through
That's why this heart belongs to only You!
How can I complain bout the pain I went through
Cause it grew me
Look at me now!
Yes, I've seen some hard times
Some bad choices that I've made fell back on me
But now it's time to move on, move on
Can't let my past hold down my destiny
And even though I don't always know
Why you allow the night to last so long
But when I see the sunlight
It was only to make me strong
Look at me
Look at me
Look at me
Look at me, look at me
Look at me now!
I'm stronger this time around
Not because I was so good, but somehow
You looked past where I was
And you knew I'd come through cause You loved me
Look at me know!
So many didn't make it through
That's why this heart belongs to only You!
How can I complain bout the pain I went through
Cause it grew me
I'm better now, I'm closer now
I'm thankful now, I'm happy now
Look at me Look at me
I'm stronger now, I'm patient now
I'm grateful now, I'll praise you now
Look at me Look at me
I'm better now, I'm closer now
I'm thankful now, I'm happy now
Look at me Look at me
I'm stronger now, I'm patient now
I'm grateful now, I'll praise you now
Look at me Look at me
Pushed away, given away, some days I couldn't imagine
Getting harder, getting colder, was hard for me to see
Tired of runnin, tired of hurting, even got tired of me
Tired of crying, tired of trying to forget my mistakes
Tired of being, in this storm, how much more can I take
Many nights in my life, tell me why
