Lyrics
THE REAL ME
[Verse 1]
I don’t come to God with a perfect face
I bring the mess, the scars, the mistakes
He already knows every hidden thought
Every battle I’ve lost, every fight I’ve fought
No mask, no front, just the real truth
He loved me back when I was bulletproof youth
When my pride was loud and my faith was weak
He still called my name, said “child, come speak
I’ve learned I ain’t gotta fake my praise
I can bring my tears on the darkest days
’Cause His love don’t fade when I’m not my best
He meets me there, gives my soul its rest
This ain’t religion, this is real grace
I’m seen and known in His holy place
So I stand as I am, flaws and all
In the arms of a King who’ll never let me fall
[Chorus]
This is the real me, no disguise
He looks at my heart, not just my eyes
Loved from the start, that’s who I’ll be
I’m free in His love to show the real me
[Verse 2]
I used to hide behind all my good deeds
Like God would love me more if I met His needs
But His love ain’t bought, it’s already mine
Not by my works, but His perfect design
So I can breathe, I can finally rest
Don’t have to keep proving that I’m blessed
He don’t want the polished, He wants the true
The broken parts, the hidden wounds too
Every scar’s a story He’s writing in gold
Every fear’s a chain that His hands will hold
So I’ll walk in the light, even with my flaws
I’m not defined by the world’s applause
The real me’s messy, but the real me’s loved
By the God who reigns high above
So I’ll lift my hands, just as I am
In the presence of the Great I Am
[Chorus]
This is the real me, no disguise
He looks at my heart, not just my eyes
Loved from the start, that’s who I’ll be
I’m free in His love to show the real me
