[Verse 1]
Got a worn-out Bible
In the backseat of my car
Coffee stain on every page
From running so hard
So far
They said
“Boy
Chase that spotlight
Trade your heart for something new”
But I was raised on Sunday choirs
And I’m still singing what is true
[Chorus]
I am true
True to me
True to You
Every step
Every scar that I walk through
If I ever shine
Let it shine Your way
If my name gets loud
Let Yours outrun the fame
I am true
True to me
True to You
That’s my only claim
[Verse 2]
Heard a voice on the TV
“Change your story
Change your skin
You can be a household name
Just lose the one you’ve been”
But I’ve seen quiet kindness
Turn a broken heart brand new
I’d rather heal one soul with hope
Than sell the lie that I outgrew
[Chorus]
I am true
True to me
True to You
Every step
Every scar that I walk through
If I ever shine
Let it shine Your way
If my name gets loud
Let Yours outrun the fame
I am true
True to me
True to You
That’s my only claim
[Bridge]
I don’t want a world of strangers
Shouting out a borrowed name (oh no)
I just want a life that whispers
Love in every little phrase (every phrase)
If a single word I’m singing
Plants a seed of grace in you
Then I’ve already made it
‘Cause that’s all I’m called to do (yeah)
[Chorus]
I am true
True to me
True to You
Every step
Every scar that I walk through
If I ever shine
Let it shine Your way
If my name gets loud
Let Yours outrun the fame
I am true
True to me
True to You
That’s my only claim
[Outro]
Creating hope in each word
That’s the dream I’m walking to
If I’m known for anything
Let it be I pointed to You (oh yeah)
I am true
True to me
True to You
