It's gonna be a long long journey
It's gonna be enough hill climb
It's gonna be though
It's gonna be some lonely nights
But i am ready to carry on
I am so glad the worst is over
I can start living now
I feel like i can do anything
And finally i am not afraid to breath
Anything you said to me
And everything you do
You can't deny the truth
Cause i am the living proof
So many thoughts fight
They just can't make it through
But look at me
I am the living proof
Oh yes i am
Thinking about life been painful
Yes it was
Took a lot to learn how to smile
So now i am gonna talk to my people about the storm
Oh so glad the worst is over
I can start flying now
My best days are in front of me
I am almost there
Cause now i am free
Everything you say to me
And everything you do
You can't deny the truth
Cause i am the living proof
So many those who fight
They just can't make it through
But look at me
I am the living proof
I know where i am going
Cause i know where i have been
I am gonna feel starts that showing
I am gonna keep rolling
That's the way that i will
Everything you say to me
And everything you do
You can't deny the truth
Cause i am the living proof
So many those who fight
They just can't make it through
But look at me
I am the living proof
Nothing about my life has been easy
But nothing is gonna keep me down
Cause i know a lot about today
And i know yesterday
So i am ready to carry on
Oh lord
