The Living Proof

The Living Proof lyrics by Mary J. Blige

It's gonna be a long long journey
It's gonna be an uphill climb
It's gonna be tough
It's gonna be some lonely nights
But I am ready to carry on
I am so glad the worst is over
I can start living now
I feel like I can do anything
And finally I am not afraid to breathe
Anything you said to me
And everything you do
You can't deny the truth
Cause I am the living proof
So many thoughts fight
They just can't make it through
But look at me
I am the living proof
Oh yes I am



Thinking about life's been painful
Yes it was
Took a lot to learn how to smile
So now I am gonna talk to my people about the storm
Oh so glad the worst is over
I can start flying now
My best days are in front of me
I am almost there
Cause now I am free
Everything you say to me
And everything you do
You can't deny the truth
Cause I am the living proof
So many of those who fight
They just can't make it through
But look at me
I am the living proof

I know where I am going
Cause I know where I have been
I am gonna feel starts that showing
I am gonna keep rolling
That's the way that I will
Everything you say to me
And everything you do
You can't deny the truth
Cause I am the living proof
So many of those who fight
They just can't make it through
But look at me
I am the living proof

Nothing about my life has been easy
But nothing is gonna keep me down
Cause I know a lot more today
Than I knew yesterday
So I am ready to carry on
