"I’m Not Who I Was" Music Video and Lyrics by Brandon Heath

You can now see a new music video of Brandon Heath’s song “I’m Not Who I Was” song at HearItFirst.

I absolutely love this song because of the lyrics below:

“I’m Not Who I Was” by Brandon Heath

I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I’m not who I was
I used to be mad at you
A little on the hurt side too
But I’m not who I was

I found my way around
To forgiving you
Some time ago
But I never got to tell you so

I found us in a photograph
I saw me and I had to laugh
You know, I’m not who I was
You were there, you were right above me
And I wonder if you ever loved me
Just for who I was

When the pain came back again
Like a bitter friend
It was all that I could do
To keep myself from blaming you

I reckon it’s a funny thing
I figured out I can sing
Now I’m not who I was
I write about love and such
Maybe ’cause I want it so much
I’m not who I was

I was thinking maybe I
I should let you know
I am not the same
But I never did forget your name
Hello

Well the thing I find most amazing
In amazing grace
Is the chance to give it out
Maybe that’s what love is all about

I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I’m not who I was

The original video is like a slideshow of a bunch of his friends holding a sign with a phrase describing themselves prior and how they’ve changed now.

What’s your favorite line from the song? What makes you like it? Do you have someone in your life that you need to forgive and let them know that you’re not who you were anymore?

Catch the original version of the video after the jump.
