Lyrics
SCARS
I can be impossible
Sometimes irresponsible
Like a child full of pride
So angry deep inside
I don’t like it but it’s true
I can be real hard to love
Feel like I’m not good enough
When I’m completely lost
There’s lines that I cross
And I hate myself too
Chorus:
Despite all of that
I’m strong and I’m kind
I’ve got a big heart
When I let myself shine
I keep showing up
Even when things are hard
‘Cause the scars from the past
Don’t define who we are
I can be too sensitive
Annoying and argumentative
Sometimes too quick to judge
Hold onto a grudge
I don’t like it but it’s true
Chorus:
Despite all of that
I’m strong and I’m kind
I’ve got a big heart
When I let myself shine
I keep showing up
Even when things are hard
‘Cause the scars from the past
Don’t define who we are
I keep showing up
Even when things are hard
‘Cause the scars from the past
Don’t define who we are
No, the scars from the past
Don’t define who we are
