Oooohhhh

This is me

[speaking] this is who i am..

I'm still tryna make it out

Cause i'm still just another girl from the ghetto

There's so much in my life

I break down cause i'm so deep in the struggle

(there isn't sun in rain. there ain't joy in pain.)

Thought i found my way out then i'm back again

From the streets to the stage of hollywood

Back to the blessings

And the love in the hood

[chorus]

I'm just a girl tryna make a way (ohhhohhh)

It gets so hard but i'll be ok (be ok)

I don't really care what the people say

Cause this is me

A mother, a daughter (daughter), a sis to my brother (sis to my brother)

I'm every woman cause i gotta be

And god put me through it

Cause he know i can do it

Cause this is me yeah

Southern girl with city dreams

Got a sack full of clothes and just a few ol' dollars

Bustin' tables while i'm tryna sing

Hope i hit it big so i can send for my daughter

(there isn't sun in rain. there ain't joy in pain.)

Thought i found my way out then i'm back again

From the streets to the stage of hollywood

Back to the blessings

And the love in the hood

[chorus]

I'm just a girl tryna make a way (make a way)

It gets so hard but i'll be ok (ohhhohhh)

I don't really can what the people say (oh yeah)

Cause this is me (this is me yeah)

A mother (mother), a daughter, a sis to my brother (sis to my brother)

I'm every woman cause i gotta be (oh yeah)

And god put me through it

Cause he know i can do it

Cause this is me yeah

[breakdown]

No one really knows the whole truth

(the whole truth about me)

And no one's had to live in my life

(then they would know it ain't easy)

Made my share of mistakes

That's alright

Cause i'm not gone be afraid no more

Cause this is me

And i won't hide who i am

[chorus (all the way out)]

I'm just a girl tryna make a way (ohhh oh yeah!)

It gets so hard but i'll be ok

I don't really care what the people say (what the people really say!) (oh yeah!)

Cause this is me

A mother, a daughter, a sis to my brother (sis to my brother)

I'm every woman cause i gotta be (hey!)

And god put me through it

Cause he know i can do it

Cause this is me yeah
