[Verse 1]
I look in the mirror
I see only scars and weariness
I tell myself silently
“You are not enough
You have never amounted to much”
But I hear Your voice
Amidst the noise of my thoughts
Whispering ever so softly
“You are not your falls
Nor your attempts”
[Chorus]
My worth does not depend
On what the world says about me
If I fall a thousand times
I know that even so, I can carry on
The fear of not rising again
Will no longer define me
I am going to believe
Believe in myself
God lives here
Inside of me
[Verse 2]
I close my eyes
I breathe deeply until the pain subsides
I count to ten
And release the weight I carry in my chest
There is fire in my hands
Even if they tremble when I reach for the future
And a heaven in my steps
Even if the path is sometimes dark (oh)
[Chorus]
My worth does not depend
On what the world says about me
If I fall a thousand times
I know that even so, I can carry on
The fear of not rising again
Will no longer define me
I am going to believe
Believe in myself
God lives here
Inside of me
[Bridge]
If I forget who I am
Remind me, You
That in every heartbeat
There is a spark of light
That all the pain
Has brought me to this place
To learn
To understand
That I, too, have a choice
[Chorus]
My worth does not depend
On what the world says about me
If I fall a thousand times
I know that even so, I can carry on
The fear of not rising again
Will no longer define me
I am going to believe
Believe in myself
God lives here
Inside of me (oh)
God lives here
Inside of me
