I look at yesterday, at how afraid I used to be
And think of all the things that used to get the best of me
Day in and day out
I was made to feel like a mistake.
It took the longest time, for me to see myself again
As something else besides what I was told I was back then
But here I am, I’m strong again
I overcame.
There comes a time, when there is nothing left to do but to rise.
There’s no space left to fall so you climb.
You look into the distance and you see no end in sight
But you go
Cause there comes a time when you’ve got to move on.
Brace yourself for a change to come, for a change to come.
Its been a long time coming, its been a long time coming.
Taking breaths again, feeling sand beneath my feet
Simple things that I see differently now that I’m free.
I learned to love myself again.
I learned to love myself again.
There comes a time, when there is nothing left to do but to rise.
There’s no space left to fall so you climb.
You look into the distance and you see no end in sight
But you go
Cause there comes a time when you’ve got to move on.
Brace yourself for a change to come, for a change to come.
Its been a long time coming, its been a long time coming.
I know who I am, now I’m me again.
You will never bring me down, that I can promise you.
I know who I am, I know where I stand.
I won’t be turning back cause I can see tomorrow now.
There comes a time, when there is nothing left to do but to rise.
There’s no space left to fall so you climb.
You look into the distance and you see no end in sight
But you go
Cause there comes a time when you’ve got to move on.
Brace yourself for a change to come...
