I've got the power in me
Stick around and you'll see
Someday where I will be
I've got the power in me
I've got the power in me
Everywhere from land to sea
Everybody's shouting with glee
I've got the power in me
I ain't got no time for writer's block
Only got one chance to rock
Life is ticking like a clock
Life is such a hard knock
Need a dose of culture shock
Need a friend for small talk
'Cuz after lights out, there's no turning back
I often wonder if I'll see success
Spent so many years depressed
My teenage years were such a mess, but I must confess
At least I've made some progress, and now I feel blessed
It's a tough climb, but God is on my side
I'm proud to work with children
People think that men are villains
It took me so damn long, just to prove them wrong
And now I'm back again, no more crawling in my skin
I'm proud to be myself, don't need nobody else
In conclusion, I hope there was no confusion
No longer fear reclusion, everyone should feel included
I feel so alive, reenergized
Life is great, I've got the power in me
I've got the power in me
Stick around and you'll see
Someday where I will be
I've got the power in me
I've got the power in me
Everywhere from land to sea
Everybody's shouting with glee
I've got the power in me
Glory to G-O-D
He put that power in me
To keep on rising when I wanted to be 6 feet deep
And on this Earth, I didn't wanna be
I kept on moving & surviving & thriving
I kept diving, headfirst into the next adventure
Variety is the spice of life, so I'm well-seasoned
Calling on Jesus, to keep me from these demons
Through the hardest of times, yeah I keep believing
Through the struggles, staying humble
Even though I may stumble
With the tasks that I juggle, but persistence pays
So I keep on playing, 'till I get my way
Y'all should feel what I'm saying, and you can learn today
And find your burdens lifted & live a new way
It's a process, but don't fret or be upset
'Cuz you're gonna love what comes next, what comes next
I've got the power in me
Stick around and you'll see
Someday where I will be
I've got the power in me
I've got the power in me
Everywhere from land to sea
Everybody's shouting with glee
I've got the power in me
Wake up from a deep sleep
Wishing I could re-dream
Slumbering, and escaping these reality things
Now I'm feeling knee-deep, turned over a new leaf
But look back, and I can see it is all repeating
Repeat, had to try hard, that's a me thing
Skeptical, even though I know I should believe
And not be ashamed to ask for another redeem-me-please
Can you see my life begin?
Leaking, drip-drip, can't be innocent when I am bleeding out sin
I begin to imagine the 1,000,000 opportunities for my life to live
But the problem is, most of them are not realistic
Pessimistic, I know I'm afraid of the unknown
But I'm afraid I don't know what the unknown is
So I just hit pause, take a minute, rewind
Turn on the captions, 'cuz it's hard to understand with the accents
I've got the power in me
Stick around and you'll see
Someday where I will be
I've got the power in me
I've got the power in me
Everywhere from land to sea
Everybody's shouting with glee
I've got the power in me
