Katy Perry - By The Grace Of God

Was 27 surviving my return to saturn
A long vacation didn't sound so bad
Was full of secrets locked up tight like iron melting
Running on empty, so out of gas

Thought I wasn't enough, found I wasn't so tough
Laying on the bathroom floor
We were living on a fault line and I felt the fault was all mine
Couldn't take it any more

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 other
And I looked in the mirror and decided to stay
Wasn't gonna let love take me up that way

I thanked my sister, for keeping my head above the water
When the truth was like swallowing sand
Now every morning, there is no more mourning
Oh, I can finally see myself again I know I am enough, possible to be loved
It was not about me
Now I have to rise above, let the universe call the bluff
Yeah, the truth will 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 other
And I looked in the mirror and decided to stay
Wasn't gonna let love take me up that way

There ain't no, not in the name
In the name of love
That way, there ain't no
I'm not giving up

By the grace of God
I picked myself back up
I put one foot in front of the other
And I 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 other
And I looked in the mirror and decided to stay
Wasn't gonna let love take me up that way
