You said I'd never
Be the same
Guess You were right
I changed the game
From crying
On the bathroom floor
To shining brighter
Than before
Your shadow used
To own my day
But I burned it off
In golden rays
Took the tears
Turned them into light
Now I blow
Through every night
You were the storm
I was the flame
But look who rose up
From the rain
No more chains
No more chance
Watch me rewrite
My romance
Now I dance
Where I used to break
On the floor
Where my heart would ache
Spinning it out
Of that old regret in
These heels
I'm my best yet
Now I
Dance to the beat of me
No more crying
Just clarity
Took the pain, gave it
Back to the sky
Now I dance and I don't
Ask why
Every I'm not good enough
Now feels my
Rise, now makes me tough
You lost me and that's your truth. I
Found myself. That's living proof. Now
My name tastes sweet in my mouth. No
More whispering. I shout it out. I was
Gold. You couldn't see. Now I wear that
Fire on me. No more shrinking just to
Fit. This is my soul and it's legit
Love myself without a glance from anyone
Who missed the chance. Now I dance where
I used to break on the floor where my
Heart would ain't spinning out of that
Old regret in these heels. I'm my best
Yet now I dance to the beat of me. No
More cry, just clarity. Took the pain
Gave it back to the sky. Now I dance and
I don't ask why
This body's mine. This laugh, this life
I don't need you to feel all right. Your
Goodbye was my hello. Now watch me steal
The show
Now I dance where I used to break. Every
Scar is a step I take. No regrets, just
Rhythm and grace. Took back my power
Took up my space. Now I dance and the
World sees me, not your echo. I'm
Finally free. Put your ghost in the past
Behind. Now I dance and the light is
Mine
Now I dance
And I never needed you to shine
