Jennifer Hudson — I Remember Me lyrics

Lyrics

I remember me, staring at myself
See these same two eyes, see these same two feet
I remember you, You who I used to be You still look the same, but you don’t hurt like me Look at my reflection, somewhere my affection
Disappeared, isn’t here, nothing left to say
Memories they fading, but I’m the one who makes them
But I keep the love close to enough to say
What if this life is all that we are given
We just can’t stop living, scared of what we’ll see
Cuz in this world, anything can hurt you
They push you, then forget you
Stole my history
But I remember me, I remember me It don’t matter where I go, what I’m told, now you know
I remember me, I remember me Even if I say goodbye, start to cry, do or die
I remember me I remember me I tell you what my name is And ain’t nothing gon' change it Cuz what you are is what you are
Even if your memory’s flawed
I go to places, trying to find familiar faces
They don’t show, but I still know
They don’t have to look for me I dream about, I dream about
The place where all the broken pieces fit together
Cuz in this world, anything can hurt you
They push you, then forget you
And stole my history
But I remember me, I remember me It don’t matter where I go, what I’m told, now you know
I remember me, I remember me Even if I say goodbye, start to cry, do or die
I remember me Now all that’s left of these hands, this breathe
I’ve said goodbye to so many things that tears wont cry
And I take this pain, this joy and rain
Cuz all that matters now is In this life anything can hurt you
Push you, then forget you
Erase your history
But I remember me, I remember me It don’t matter where I go, what I’m told, now you know
I remember me, I remember me Even if I say goodbye, start to cry, do or die
I remember me I remember me, oh woah
I remember me, I tell you what my name is I tell you what my name is Do or die
