Katy Perry - By the grace of God

I was 27 was surviving my return of SaturnA long vacation didn’t sound so badWas full of secrets locked up tight like iron meltingRunning on empty so out of gasThought I wasn’t enoughFound I wasn’t so toughLayin’ on the bathroom floorWe were living on a fault lineAnd I felt the fault was all mineCouldn’t take it anymore
By the grace of God (There was no other way)I picked myself back up (I knew I had to stay)I put foot in front of the otherAnd I looked in the mirrorAnd decided to stayWasn’t gonna let love take me upThat way
I thank my sister for keeping my head above the waterWhen the truth was like swallowing sandNow every morningOh there is no more mourning overCan finally see myself againI know I am enoughPossible to be lovedIt was not about meNow I have to rise aboveLet the universe call the bluffYeah the truth’ll set you free
By the grace of God (There was no other way)I picked myself back up (I knew I had to stay)I put one foot in front of the otherAnd I looked in the mirrorAnd decided to stayWasn’t gonna let love take me upOh, that way, that way, noNot in the nameIn the name of loveThat way, that way, noI am not giving up
By the grace of GodI picked myself back upI put one foot in front of the otherAnd I looked in the mirror (Looked in the mirror)Looked in the mirror (Looked in the mirror)
By the grace of God (There was no other way)I picked myself back up (I knew I had to stay)I put one foot in front of the otherAnd I looked in the mirrorAnd decided to stayWasn’t gonna let love take me upThat way
