Caleah Buil Poet Lyric

I Am

I'll always remember you
If only because of what you put me through
But it made me see
What I can truly be
We all learn things in life
I learned mine through strife
I may have fell
But it turned out well
I am who I am
The only bad thing in the end
Is that I can't find my old self again
Will it ever mend?
I am who I am
I have ran
From myself
Trying to see how I felt
It's not there anymore
The person I was before
I think its Ok, I say
I am who I am
No matter what comes my way
