[Verse 1] I made the decision, today I don't have to live that way, So, I let the old voices fade away, And felt the light, of a brand new day. Every scar, means that I survived, Every sunrise, means I'm still alive. My worth isn't measured by yesterday, I won't let fear stand in my way, There's a fire underneath my skin, Each new day, a chance to begin again. [Pre-Chorus] I know what I am, I know who I'm meant to be, The future is bright, And it belongs to me. [Chorus] I am strong, I am worthy, The pain of yesterday Can not hurt me I am rising, I am ready, I can't lose, if I never quit I am fearless, I won't retreat I have everything that I'll ever need, And I trust the voice, deep inside me: I believe, I believe, I believe... [Verse 2] The dark days, cannot stop me I don't ask permission to shine, I am glowin', and I am growin' I won't follow, or step in line, I can stumble, I can even fall, But I'll always stand back up, Through it all. I found wisdom in the road I've walked, There is power in the words I talk, I'm steady, building every piece of me I'm becoming who I'm meant to be. [Pre-Chorus] I know who I am, I know what I can be, The chains are falling off And I'm finally feeling free. [Chorus] I am strong, I am worthy, The pain of yesterday Can not hurt me I am rising, I am ready, I can't lose, if I never quit I am fearless, I won't retreat I have everything that I'll ever need, And I trust the voice, deep inside me: I believe, I believe, I believe... [Bridge — stripped down] I choose peace. I choose power. Every minute, Every hour I choose life I choose growth Every step I take Is fueled with hope I choose faith. And I believe. I know there's greatness Inside of me. I stand tall I never hide What was sleeping Is now awake and thrives I was born to live, I was born to love I know Heaven's light Will bear me up [Final Chorus — bigger] I am strong, I am worthy, The pain of yesterday Can not hurt me I am rising, I am ready, I can't lose, if I never quit I am fearless, I won't retreat I have everything that I'll ever need, And I trust the voice, deep inside me: I believe, I believe, I believe... [Outro, spoken/ chanted, like a mantra] I am strong, I am worthy, And my yesterdays can't hurt me I am more than what I've been, I am rising, an I'm ready, This is where my life begins. If I never quit, I will always win I have everything I need, I trust the voice inside me, I believe, I believe, I believe...
