I'M Gonna Show You How Great I Am

Shadows seem to surround us But it's really the light we're more afraid of Strangers come and I let them know me But you are still held at arm's length I've got the reach, I know I do I'll close the space to just hold you I'm gonna show you how great I am A force too fierce to be denied I'm gonna show you how great I am Because I know I once moved thunder And held the lightening in place just to make your eyes shine It's not my fear of failure before you It's my fear of the wonder of just letting go and letting you in These pathetic terrors are nothing but walls I'm gonna climb 'Cuz I'm gonna show you how great I am I'm gonna show you how great I am Because I know I once moved thunder And held the lightening in place just to make your eyes shine
