New Day

Today is a new day
Today is a new day

Not the girl I used to be
Growing into the woman
I wanna be
Wipe these footprints off me
And you see the woman in me

Allow me to introduce myself
I don't think we have met before
I've known you for awhile now
But you never got to know me for sure
You thought you knew what I was about
Full of insecurities and massive doubt
But I have come into my own
And if you didn't know
Well, let it be known

Today is a new day
Today is a new day

Not the girl I used to be
Growing into the woman
I wanna be
Wipe these footprints off me
I was so blind, so damn naive
Walk by faith and not by sight
Never give up because it's worth the fight
Not the girl I used to be
And now, you see the woman in me

Rather have no one in my life at all
Then have people who don't care when I fall
Putting you first, always putting myself last
Those days are over now, so in the past
Cuz' I am power, I am drive, never allow myself, not to strive
Things have changed but it's for the better
So listen up, as I sing my letter
Of a new day

Today is a new day
Today is a new day

Not the girl I used to be
Growing into the woman
I wanna be
Wipe these footprints off me
I was so blind, so damn naive
Walk by faith and not by sight
Never give up because it's worth the fight
Not the girl I used to be
And now, you see the woman in me

Don't need you at all in my life
It was never really worth the fights
Doesn't matter who was wrong or right
Time to move on; take my badge and my strips
Why do we seek things we don't need?
Go after things that only make us cry on our knees?
Going forward, you won't be around
I'll keep my head up and away from the ground (ground)

Today is a new day
Today is a new day (new day)

Not the girl I used to be
Growing into the woman (growing into the woman I wanna be)
I wanna be
Wipe these footprints off me
I was so blind, so damn naïve (so damn naive)
Walk by faith and not by sight
Never give up because it's worth the fight (Its worth the fight)
Not the girl I used to be
And now, you see the woman in me (me, yeah, yeah)
