It might scare me to death or chill my bones
break my heart or warm my soul
But since Im here and before I go
Im gonna find out who I am
Late one cold Thanksgiving night
They welcomed me another 60s child
To a family holding tight
Its a part of who I am Yeah
I got a mama who prays for me
She fights the devil down on her knees
I cant see all that Mama sees
But its part of who I am
She gave me truth and she watched me grow
I tow the lines and I test the ropes
And I tried a little bit of everything I know
Just to find out who I am
Who I am
Does it matter anyway
Who I am
And what Ive seen along the way
Who I am
It changes a little everyday
But with the light of truth and an open heart
I just want half a chance
As long as Im here and before I go
Im gonna find out who I am
Music is my souls delight
It comes to me both day and night
and it gives me wings to give me flight
Its a part of who I am
I hold on to a simple faith
about the choices and the path I take
Though the good and the bad mistakes
Im gonna find out who I am
Who I am
Does it matter anyway
Who I am
And what Ive seen along the way
Who I am
It changes a little everyday
But with the light of truth and an open heart
I just want half a chance
As long as Im here and before I go
Im gonna find out who I am
And did it ever really matter
In the big forever clear
Who I am and what Im here for
I dont know
Is it wrong to want an answer
To try to understand
Who I am
Does it matter anyway
Who I am
And what Ive learned along the way
Who I am
It changes a little everyday
But with the light of truth and an open heart
I just want half a chance
As long as Im here and before I go
Im gonna find out who I am
Who I am
