I'm the Living Proof

This song reminds me of this long journey we have travelled. I'm living proof that if you don't give up you will succeed and your dreams will come true.

The Living Proof

By: Mary J Blige

It's gonna be a long long journey

It's gonna be an uphill climb

It's gonna be a tough fight

It's gonna be some lonely nights

But I'm ready to carry on

I'm so glad the worst is over

I can start living now,

ooh I feel like I can do anythin'

And finally I'm not afraid to breathe

Anything you say to me

And everything you do

You can't deny the truth

Cause I'm the living proof

So many don't survive

They just don't make it through

But look at me ooh I'm the living proof

Oh yes I am

Thinkin' back life's been painful

Yes it was

Took a while to learn how to smile

So now I'm gonna talk to my people oh

About the storm oh about the storm

Oh so glad the worst is over

I can start flyin' now oh

My best days are right in front of me

And I'm almost there

Cause now I am free

Anything you say to me

And everything you do

You can't deny the truth

Cause I'm the living proof

So many don't survive

They just don't make it through

But look at me

I'm the living proof

I know where I'm goin' hey

Cause I know where I've been

oh I gotta few stars that showin' hey

I'm gonna stay strong keep goin' That's the way that I will

Anything you say to me

And everything you do

You can't deny the truth

Cause I'm the living proof oh

So many don't survive

They just don't make it through

But look at me yeah yeah

I'm the living proof

Nothing about my life's been easy

But nothings gonna keep me down

Cause I know a lot more today

Than I knew yesterday
