Ty Brasel - Who I Am

Copied!

{intro}
Because sometimes life will make you feel like you can't even keep going
And that's when you find out who you are

{chorus}
All that pressure got me feelin' like a diamond
All them dark nights the reason that i'm shinin'
Through the pain i've been prayin' and fightin'
And that's what made me who i am
I can't let up, so this pressure, i'll apply it
Turn my back 'gainst the odds, i'm defiant
Through the fire i'm prayin' and fightin'
And that's what made me who i am

{post-chorus}
Yeah, who i am
Yeah, yeah, who i am

{verse 1}
Yeah, this for all the times i felt like givin' up
Pain on me weighin' on me and thе devil preyin' on me
And my mind tеllin' me i ain't enough
Feelin' stuck, callin' to god, i really need your love
Rain down on me, yeah
Since a youngin i knew you had plans for me, yeah
Now when you see me i'm a living testimony
And i know you'll never leave me even when i'm at my lowest
Yeah, yeah, look, i'm livin' proof
If you want somethin' then you could do it too
Mm, hm, if you quit then that's the only way you lose
No it ain't over 'til it's through

{chorus}
All that pressure got me feelin' like a diamond
All them dark nights the reason that i'm shinin'
Through the pain i've been prayin' and fightin'
And that's what made me who i am
I can't let up, so this pressure, i'll apply it
Turn my back 'gainst the odds, i'm defiant
Through the fire i'm prayin' and fightin'
And that's what made me who i am

{post-chorus}
Yeah, who i am
Yeah, yeah, who i am

{verse 2}
And when i'm walkin' through the valley i won't fear an army
I look my eyes to heaven, i know you walk with me
I'ma walk in miracles through all you brought me
And i'ma keep on walkin' wherever you call me
Is this for all the times i felt like givin' in?
Even when it look finished i know it's not the end
Just gotta trust the plan even when you don't understand
'cause everything i went through, that's what made me who i am

{chorus}
All that pressure got me feelin' like a diamond
All them dark nights the reason that i'm shinin'
Through the pain i've been prayin' and fightin'
And that's what made me who i am
I can't let up, so this pressure, i'll apply it
Turn my back 'gainst the odds, i'm defiant
Through the fire i'm prayin' and fightin'
And that's what made me who i am

Biography

edit bio

Tyler Alan Brasel, better known by his stage name Ty Brasel, is a Christian hip-hop artist hailing from Memphis, Tennessee. He is currently signed with 4 Against 5 Records, the hip-hop branch of Word Entertainment.

Growing up, Ty Brasel’s parents were divorced and this was a tough situation. In ninth grade, Ty was introduced to marijuana. Also, in high school, he became the quarterback of the high school football team, and often popped pills and smoked marijuana to fill his void.

One day after multiple encounters with the police, as well as his parents learning about his pill addiction, Ty asked why he was living. Jesus then saved his life and changed his whole mindset. After that moment, Ty Brasel decided to make music to glorify God and not earthly things.

On January 21, 2015, Ty Brasel released his debut album Cloud 9 Raps on Rapzilla for free. The album was later named the best free project of 2015 on Rapzilla, one of the most successful Christian hip-hop websites. After being named a Rapzilla 2016 Freshman, Ty Brasel released his 2016 EP, 1994 Until.

Later in 2017, Ty Brasel was featured on KB’s “Smith & Wesson,” and was given a shout-out by successful rapper Lecrae. This led to the announcement of Young T, Ty Brasel’s second studio album. This album gave the listener a smooth listen, talking about the emotions Ty Brasel faced coming up from his past.

On December 13, 2017, Ty Brasel announced his signing to 4 Against 5 Records, the hip-hop branch of Word Entertainment. In a Twitter post, Ty Brasel talked about his signing with 4 Against 5 Records.

4 years ago from today l dropped out of college to pursue my passion for music. Today l announce that I’ve signed my first record deal w/ IVAV, (hip hop division of Word) l look forward to the future, & l can’t wait to share this new music with you.

Through 4 Against 5 Records, Ty Brasel has released singles “Praying Hands” and “No More,” as well as his 2018 projects, Destined For Greatness (Side A) and Destined For Greatness (Side B) which he later combined into a full length album entitled Destined For Greatness .
