Kirk Franklin - Look At Me Now (With Lyrics)
Persecuted, criticized, been denied and abandoned Pushed away, given away, some days I couldn't imagine Getting harder, getting colder, was hard for me to see Tired of runnin', tired of hurtin', even got tired of me Tired of cryin', tired of tryin' to forget my mistakes Tired of bein' in this storm, how much more can I take Many nights in my life, tell me why I shed more tears, my eyes would allow And after all that Look at me now! I'm stronger this time around! Not because I was so good, but somehow You looked past where I was And you knew I'd come through cause You loved me Look at me know! So many didn't make it through That's why this heart belongs to only You! How can I complain 'bout the pain I went through Cause it grew me Look at me now! Had no hope, had no future, even too hard to dream No one told me, boy, you can be whatever you want to be Then You saved me and You gave me reason to breathe again Not perfect, ya'll, but I'm gon' run 'til I make it to the end (It ain't easy when your life's filled with wounds that won't heal) And you fight through the lies trying to find what's for real Everyone wants the prize but they can't stand the pain The strength I needed it came that night I cried out Your name To my people in the struggle, all my soldiers and believers To my survivors of Rita, Katrina and even FEMA (All things are working together for our good) Look at me now! I'm stronger this time around! Not because I was so good, but somehow You looked past where I was And you knew I'd come through cause You loved me Look at me know! So many didn't make it through That's why this heart belongs to only You! How can I complain 'bout the pain I went through Cause it grew me Look at me now! Yes, I've seen some hard times Some bad choices that I've made fell back on me But now it's time to move on, move on Can't let my past hold down my destiny And even though I don't always know Why you allow the night to last so long But when I see the sunlight It was only to make me strong Look at me... Look at me... Look at me... Look at me, look at me I'm better now! I'm closer now! I'm thankful now! I'm happy now! Look at me! Look at me! I'm stronger now! I'm patient now! I'm grateful now! I'll praise you now! Look at me! Look at me!
