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.
