The Living Proof lyrics

It's gonna be a long long journey

It's gonna be an uphill climb

It's gonna be a tough fight

There's gonna be some lonely nights

But I'm ready to carry on

I’m so glad the worst is over (cos it almost took me out)

I can start living now ooh ooh

I feel like I can do anything

And finally I'm not afraid to breathe

[CHORUS]

Anything you say to me

And everything you do

You can’t deny the truth

Cos I’m the living proof

So many don’t survive

They just don’t make it through

But look at me oh ho

I’m the living proof - oh yes I am

Thinking 'bout how life's been painful

Took a while to learn how to smile

So now I’m gonna talk to my people oh oh

About the storm [2x] wo ooh

So glad the worst is over

I can start flying now oh ho

My best days are right in front of me

Yet I’m almost there

Cos now I’m free oh

[CHORUS]

Anything you say to me

And everything you do

You can’t deny the truth

Cos 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

[BRIDGE]

I know where I’m going

Cos I know where I’ve been oh oh

I kind of feel strong as

I’m gonna stay strong keep going

That’s the way that I’ll win

[CHORUS]

Anything you say to me

And everything you do (everything you do)

You can’t deny the truth

Cos 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

Nothing ‘bout my life’s been easy

But nothing’s gonna keep me down no

Cos I know a lot more today

And I know yesterday

So I’m ready to carry on
