There was a time I packed my dreams away Living in a shell, hiding from myself
There was a time when I was so afraid I thought I'd reached the end Baby that was then But I am made of more than my yesterdays
[Chorus] This is my now, and I am breathing in the moment Cuz I look around I can't believe the love I see My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubts That was then, this is my now.
Had to decide was I gonna play it safe Or look somewhere deep inside and try to turn the tide Find the strength to take that step of faith
[Chorus]
[Bridge] And I have the courage like never before, yeah I've settled for less but ready for more Ready for more
I'm wiser now I'm not the foolish girl you used to know So long ago I'm stronger now I've learned from my mistakes which way to go And I should know I put myself aside to do it your way But now I need to do it all alone
And I am not afraid to try it on my own I don't care if I'm right or wrong I'll live my life the way I feel No matter what I'll keep it real you know Time for me to do it on my own Yeah yeah, mmm, yeah yeah
It's over now I can't go back to living through your eyes Too many lines And if you don't know by now I can't go back to being someone else Not anymore I never had a chance to do things my way So now it's time for me to take control
And I am not afraid to try it on my own I don't care if I'm right or wrong I'll live my life the way I feel No matter what I'm gonna keep it real you know Time for me to do it
Oh I start again go back to one I'm running things my way Can't stop me now, I've just begun Don't even think about it There ain't no way about it I'm taking names, the ones of mine Yes I'm gonna take my turn It's time for me to finally stand alone, stand alone
I am not afraid to try it on my own And I don't care if I'm right or wrong I'll live my life the way I feel No matter what I'm gonna keep it real you know It's time for me to do it See I'm not afraid
