[Lyric] Strong As I Am (Altered State)

Father, look in my eyes see me as I really am
You made me, now take me
Tell me how it feels now, behold your flesh has come of age
Forsake me, you break me

Strong as I am
There's something about this thing that scares me
Strong as I am
There’s something about this thing that dares me
Strong as I am
There's something about this thing that haunts me
Strong as I am
There's something about this thing that taunts me

Mother, let me heal you, your pain has lasted far too long
Release it, it kills you
See me as I feel you, the love you would not share
Is tired of waiting

Strong as I am
There’s something about this thing that scares me
Strong as I am
There's something about this thing that dares me
Strong as I am
There's something about this thing that haunts me
Strong as I am
There's something about this thing that taunts me
Will I leave them (?), I say no
They ask me, will you leave us (?)
I say...no

Would I trade you, or discard you, for a moment that seems beyond us (?)
Never would I break this union, when our love is just becoming

You gave me life, I give you...love
