I Count on Me

If there's one thing that I'm sure about It's that I got a lot to learn If there's another thing that I'm sure about It's that I'm sick of sitting, waiting my turn I've been knocked around Pushed to the ground People try to hold me down But here's a little thing that I'm sure about I'm gon' be standing firm when I get back up again I count on me When everybody's counting me out I count on me When the world is full of doubt Through the storm, through the pain Through the fire, through the rain I count on me And that's the way it's gonna be When I look around, all that I can see Is people trying to shift the blame When I look around, yeah, it's clear to me Something 'bout me ain't the same Some people are cold, selling their soul I don't wanna be that way Take a look around, take a look at me I ain't never gonna change 'Cause I know what I believe I count on me When everybody's counting me out I count on me When the world is full of doubt Through the storm (through the storm) Through the pain (through the pain) Through the fire, through the rain I count on me And that's the way it's gonna be Now I ain't saying I can't rely on no one else 'Cause there are days when I'm trying to find a little help My friends got good intentions and though they mean me well Don't nobody know me like I know I know myself I count on me When everybody's counting me out I count on me When the world is full of doubt Through the storm (through the storm) Through the pain (through the pain) Through the fire, through the rain I count on me And that's the way it's gotta be I count on me (when there's no one to turn to, no where to go) I count on me (when I'm tryna find a helping hand to help me go) I count on me (through the fire, through the rain, through the storm) I count on me (oh, oh, oh) That's the way it's gonna be
