Grateful (from "Beyond the Lights" soundtrack)

There were a lot of tears I had to cry through
A lot of battles left me battered and bruised
Now I was shattered to have my heart ripped in two
I was broken, I was broken,
There were a lot of times I stumbled and crushed
When I was only years down to my last chance
So many times when I was so convinced that
I was over, I was over
But I had to fall yeah
To rise above it all

I'm grateful for the star
Made me appreciate the sun
I'm grateful for the wrong ones
Made me appreciate the right ones
I'm grateful for the pain
For everything that made me break
I'm thankful for all my scars
'Cause they only made my heart
Grateful, grateful, grateful, grateful, grateful
Grateful

I was thinking I was trying to end out
From all the pain that was weighing me down
I pulled it together and I pulled myself out
Learned a lesson, learned a lesson
That there's a life you gotta go through hell, yes
But that's what got me strong, I got no regrets
And I've got only love, got no bitterness
I count my blessings, count my blessings, yeah
I'm proud of every tear, 'cause they got me here

I'm grateful for the star
Made me appreciate the sun
I'm grateful for the wrong ones
Made me appreciate the right ones
I'm grateful for the pain
For everything that made me break
I'm thankful for all my scars
'Cause they only made my heart
Grateful, grateful, grateful, grateful, grateful
Grateful

There is nothing I would change,
Not even one mistake I made
I got lost, found myself, found my way
I'm grateful for the star
Made me appreciate the sun
I'm grateful for the wrong ones
Made me appreciate the right ones
I'm grateful for the pain
For everything that made me break
I'm thankful for all my scars
'Cause they only made my heart
Grateful, grateful, grateful, grateful, grateful
Grateful

You know that I'm grateful,
You know that I care
No time for the wrong ones,
I'll always be there
Grateful
Grateful, grateful
I'm grateful
Grateful, grateful
Oh, I am
Grateful
Oh, I am grateful
