What are the lessons I'm here to learn?
I've travelled all these years only to return
And I feel like I'm small again
Like I'm that little girl again
Wondering am I enough again
How can this be?
And all I know is that trouble sets me free
I lose myself and finally I see
I don't deserve this
I must preserve me
Why is the mountain top so out of reach?
I'm in the foothills still looking up at the peak
And I feel like I'm weak again
Insecure, incomplete again
All the wounds that I thought were gone
Why don't we heal?
Blaming all the things I cannot change
Patterns in my mind remain the same
Still swimming upstream
When it's all up to me
We fail ourselves just to please
Betray ourselves so easily
Why can't we see we are magnificent?
We lose ourselves to belong
Convince ourselves that we are wrong
Why can't we see we are magnificent?
And all I know is that trouble sets me free
I lose myself and finally I see
I don't deserve this
I must preserve me
We fail ourselves just to please
Betray ourselves so easily
Why can't we see we are magnificent?
We lose ourselves to belong
Convince ourselves that we are wrong
Why can't we see we are magnificent?
Why can't we see we are magnificent?
