Oooohhhh
|
This is me
|
[speaking] this is who i am..
|
|
[verse one]
|
|
I'm still tryna make it out
|
Cause i'm still just another girl from the ghetto
|
There's so much in my life
|
I break down cause i'm so deep in the struggle
|
(there isn't sun in rain. there ain't joy in pain.)
|
Thought i found my way out then i'm back again
|
From the streets to the stage of hollywood
|
Back to the blessings
|
And the love in the hood
|
|
[chorus]
|
|
I'm just a girl tryna make a way (ohhhohhh)
|
It gets so hard but i'll be ok (be ok)
|
I don't really care what the people say
|
Cause this is me
|
A mother, a daughter (daughter), a sis to my brother (sis to my brother)
|
I'm every woman cause i gotta be
|
And god put me through it
|
Cause he know i can do it
|
Cause this is me yeah
|
|
[verse two]
|
|
Southern girl with city dreams
|
Got a sack full of clothes and just a few ol' dollars
|
Bustin' tables while i'm tryna sing
|
Hope i hit it big so i can send for my daughter
|
(there isn't sun in rain. there ain't joy in pain.)
|
Thought i found my way out then i'm back again
|
From the streets to the stage of hollywood
|
Back to the blessings
|
And the love in the hood
|
|
[chorus]
|
|
I'm just a girl tryna make a way (make a way)
|
It gets so hard but i'll be ok (ohhhohhh)
|
I don't really can what the people say (oh yeah)
|
Cause this is me (this is me yeah)
|
A mother (mother), a daughter, a sis to my brother (sis to my brother)
|
I'm every woman cause i gotta be (oh yeah)
|
And god put me through it
|
Cause he know i can do it
|
Cause this is me yeah
|
|
[breakdown]
|
|
No one really knows the whole truth
|
(the whole truth about me)
|
And no one's had to live in my life
|
(then they would know it ain't easy)
|
Made my share of mistakes
|
That's alright
|
Cause i'm not gone be afraid no more
|
Cause this is me
|
And i won't hide who i am
|
|
[chorus (all the way out)]
|
|
I'm just a girl tryna make a way (ohhh oh yeah!)
|
It gets so hard but i'll be ok
|
I don't really care what the people say (what the people really say!) (oh yeah!)
|
Cause this is me
|
A mother, a daughter, a sis to my brother (sis to my brother)
|
I'm every woman cause i gotta be (hey!)
|
And god put me through it
|
Cause he know i can do it
|
Cause this is me yeah
