Verse 1 I’ve walked through nights I don’t talk about Lost my way when the lights went out Carried the weight of the things I’ve done Trying to see who I’ve become (who I’ve become) [Chorus] But I hear a voice saying, lift up your head You’re more than the shadows you’ve been walking in The past is a teacher, not the end of the road Take a breath, let it go, and come on home (come on home) [Verse 2] Some folks leave and they don’t look back Some hearts break with a quiet crack But I’ve learned mercy can find a man Even when he’s doing the best he can [Chorus] And I hear a voice saying, lift up your head You’re more than the shadows you’ve been walking in The past is a teacher, not the end of the road Take a breath, let it go, and come on home (come on home) [Bridge] I’m not who I was I’m not who I’ll be But I’m learning to stand On forgiven knees (on forgiven knees) [Final Chorus] So I lift my head when the morning comes Let the light fall where the darkness was The past is a teacher, not the end of the road Take a breath, let it go, and come on home (come on home) I’m not the sum of my worst moment I can stand up again and come on home (I can stand up again and come on home) I’m not the sum of my worst moment I can stand up again and come on home (I can stand up again and come on home) (come on home)
