Where I'm Heading

I've been beaten
I've been broken
the odds never seem
to be in my favor.
but I've held on
and I'm not giving up.
because now I know
where I'm heading.

I've been puzzled
I've been lost
I could never
find my way.
but there's a light now
in the darkness,
and I'm finding out
who I really am.

so everything's clearer now
and my path has been found,
and now I know
where I'm heading.
