Who I'm Not
Who I'm not
I'm not who people label me to be
I am me unapologetically
I'm not the bottom of the barrel
I'm not the dirt
I'm not useless
I know my worth
I'm not an ordinary person
I am me the uncut unraw, the unedited version
I'm unscripted
My words will keep you uplifted
I'm gifted
I got talent
It can cut deep. Can you handle it
Who I'm not
Let me tell you
Once you learn
It won't fail you
Let me get
Out my Comfort Zone
Let me elevate
To where I belong
Let me wipe my tears
Let me dry my eyes
Let me be great
To My surprise
I've had ups and downs
Downs and ups
Did a lot of things
Never got stuck
Was it luck
No, it was a blessing
Lessons learned
I learned my lessons
I did a lot
Can't make excuses
Excuses I won't make
You have to be a risk taker
Risks you will take
No matter if you have a lot
On your plate
Know that God doesn't make mistakes
He will give you a clean slate
Make you clean
Start over if you know what i mean
For every person and everything who did you wrong
God is about to make you strong ??
Turn your trials into triumphs
Turn your life around
Don't let what others say and how they see you put you down
You are awesome, and you are great
Keep God first
And everything else will follow
That's the honest truth ??
Give it all you got
Let people know who you are not
Who I'm not
Let me tell you
Once you learn
It won't fail you
(Repeat until chorus fades)
