Aeralie Brighton Aeralie Brighton - This Is Me (Aphasia Warriors)

Imagine having the words to say
But they won't come out the proper way
It's lonely and isolating
Invisibly devastating, oh

It takes all my courage to feel right
A mighty warrior facing fights
Recovery is a process
But I am strong, please hold on, oh

There are some days I need help
With all that I want to say

Intelligence intact
That's a fact
That's aphasia
No more holding back
I'm on track
With aphasia
Ooo
This is me
Ooo
This is me

It may take some time to get words out
Your patience helps erase all my doubts
My stroke affected my speech
But I am smart and I am strong, oh

There are some days I need help
With all that I want to say

Intelligence intact
That's a fact
That's aphasia
No more holding back
I'm on track
With aphasia
Ooo
This is me
Ooo
This is me

But we can adapt and adjust
That's aphasia
Searching for what's right, not what's not
That's aphasia
Ooo
This is me
Ooo
This is me

Don't stop what I'm about to say
With patience and strength I'll find my way, oh

Intelligence intact
That's a fact
That's aphasia
No more holding back
I'm on track
With aphasia
Ooo
This is me
Ooo
This is me

Intelligence intact
No more holding back
Ooo
This is me
Ooo
Aphasia warriors!
