  • Sometimes I don't like it
    But that don't mean I don't love it
    Sometimes I get down so low
    But that don't mean I can't rise above it
    Sometimes it's the vast unknown
    As far as I can see
    And sometimes it feels like I'm touching everything
    And everything is touching me

    I've lost people and money
    To become the woman I am today
    And I'll still be becoming tomorrow
    Maybe losin', but still choosin' her anyway

    Know it's a lot to look at all that I got
    It's a lot to see who I am and am not
    But I can laugh and I can love and I can dream
    And I can do hard things

    I look at my baby
    I wouldn't trade him for the world
    And I've gained joy like I've never known
    But lost the lightness when I was a girl
    We're told to say that it's better
    And it is and it isn't, and I know
    That there's little black or white
    There's little wrong or right
    And mostly it's both

    I know it's a lot to look at all that I got
    It's a lot to see who I am and am not
    But I can laugh and I can love and I can dream
    And I can do hard things

    Sometimes I can hold it all
    I know where I end and where I start
    And sometimes it's all way too heavy
    And I'm way more than the sum of all my parts

    I know it's a lot to look at all that I got
    It's a lot to see who I am and am not
    But I can laugh and I can love and I can dream
    I can win or I can lose, it's all the same
    I still dance, and I'll sing in the pain
    And I can do hard things Writer/s: Jennifer Nettles
