I Always Knew I Had It In Me (Version 2) (from "The Greatest" soundtrack)

I always knew I had it in me
My spirit cried, once locked in chains
Can I forgive you now for all my pain?
What would you have done if you had been me?
I lived and breathed what I believed
Now I've found my place in history

How can I explain to you
The life and times that I lived through
The friends I loved along the way
Are still within my heart today

My life is only just beginning
I've got a lot of things to do and say
Maybe together we can find a way

Every man who stands alone
Gets the greatest burden to hold

I always knew I had it in me
My spirit cried, once locked in chains
Can I forgive you now for all my pain?
What would you have done if you had been me?
I lived and breathed what I believed
Now I've found myself in history

Listen to this lullaby
And if you find
It makes you cry
You'll understand a little more
The tears of ages gone before
