Now
You’ve held me back for so long
Now I’m so alive
Without you I thought I’d fall
But look!
Just watch
I’m flying
I never needed to hold your hand
I never needed you to lean on
How could I have been so small
I’ve gone for so long
Living like I’m not alive
That’s all going to end right here
I’m over holding all this fear
I’m starting over
Right here
Right now
This is what I’ll be
Now
And
Forever
Strong.
That’s it,
That’s me
Strength
I’ll
Die
Living
It.
