I Am

Given time you'll see, no reason to hold back
There is one you can believe in, Take my hand and come with me.
There is more to life than just surviving
Listen to your heart,
Birthsongs  are reviving.
There is no trick or magic plan,
Just listen to your soul as it whispers "I am".
You are not what they believe,
Your dreams are real, a chosen story
Your soul is crying to tell.
Why don't you see, all you search for
The child in you knows too well.
There is more to life than just surviving
Listen to you heart;
Birthsongs are reviving.
There is no trick or magic plan.
Just listen to your soul as it shouts "I am".
I am all you ever hoped, all you've ever learned
I am why you cried and cursed when love's fire burned
I am more than what I seem
I am the beginning of life's streams
I am the beauty still unseen
I am the place you go and dream
I am why you sing and dance
I am the best of you, your only chance
I am your rain, your moon, your sky
Your only answer
I am what makes you fly.
There's more to life than just surviving
Listen to your heart
Birthsongs are reviving
Let them come, the worst is past
I am, I am, I am
I am myself at last.
