It was you
That showed me who I am
And taught me how to stand
For what I know is real
I was sick of all the pain
Tired of all the shame that I felt
But you showed me a way
To never have a doubt
And always to believe in myself
Now I see
It was you
That showed me who I am
And taught me how to stand
For what I know is real
[Chorus:]
Now I`m breathing for the first time
And I`m leaving, all this behind
I`ve become, what I am because of you
It was you
I`m so sorry `bout the ways
But I can`t take away my past
But you love me anyway
And now I wanna do
Everything for you that I can
Even though it won`t erase
The foolish things that I`ve done
Things that blinded me
But now I see
It was you
That showed me who I am
And taught me how to stand
For what I know is real
Now I`m breathing for the first time
And I`m leaving, all this behind
And taught me how to stand
For what I know is real
So how can I make this up to you
I`ll fight and I`ll push and I`ll strive
Now that I`m living my life for you
I`ll fight and I`ll push and I`ll strive
Can`t you see?
It was you
That showed me who I am
And taught me how to stand
For what I know is real
Now I`m breathing for the first time
And I`m leaving, all this behind
I`ve become, what I am because of you
It was you
I can see the writing on the wall
As time begins to crawl away from me
And I`ve become what I am
Because of you
It was you
