Aloe Blacc - I Count on Me Lyrics

If there's one thing that I'm sure about
It's that I got a lot to learn
If there's another thing that I'm sure about
It's that I'm sick of sitting waiting my turn

I've been knocked around
Pushed to the ground
People try to hold me down
But here's a little thing that I'm sure about
I'm gone be standing firm when I get back up again

I count on me
When everybody's counting me out
I count on me
When the world is full of doubt

Through the storm, through the pain
Through the fire, through the rain
I count on me
And that's the way it's gonna be

When I look around, all that I can see
Is people trying to shift the blame
When I look around, yeah it's clear to me
Something 'bout me ain't the same

Some people are cold selling their soul
I don't wanna be that way
Take a look around, take a look at me
I ain't never gonna change
'Cause I know what I believe

I count on me
When everybody's counting me out
I count on me
When the world is full of doubt

Through the storm, through the pain
Through the fire, through the rain
I count on me
And that's the way it's gonna be

Now I ain't saying I can't rely on no one else
'Cause there are days when I'm trying to find a little help
My friends got good intentions and though they mean me well
Don't nobody know me like I know I know myself

I count on me
When everybody's counting me out
I count on me
When the world is full of doubt

Through the storm, through the pain
Through the fire, through the rain
I count on me
And that's the way it's gotta be

I count on me
When there's no one to turn to and nowhere to go
I count on me
When I'm tryin' to find a helping hand, they have me know
I count on me
Through the fire, through the rain, through the storm
I count on me
that's the way it's gonna be
