This Time
[Verse 1]
It's been a real long year
It's been a lot going on since the things have gone wrong, yeah
So much for me to do
And now that I can see clear, I can start a brand new

[Pre-Chorus]
Family, school friends
This time things are gon' be different
Silence, no way
I'm not giving up that easy
No more feeling all alone
I am strong here on my own
I would take this as my one chance to be me

[Chorus]
This time, nobody's gonna stop me
This time, I'm finally free
This time, from my head to my toes, from my mind to my soul
I'm letting you know
This time, I'm loving myself on time
And I want you to know that I'm letting the past stay behind
And it's gonna be fine this time
This time, this time, ooh, this time

[Verse 2]
There's been so many times
I've smiled for anyone else, but not for myself
No one really understood all the things I went through
As I was living for you
[Pre-Chorus]
Family, school friends
This time things are gon' be different
Silence, no way
I'm not giving up that easy
No more feeling all alone
I am strong here on my own
I would take this as my one chance to be me

[Chorus]
This time, nobody's gonna stop me
This time, I'm finally free
This time, from my head to my toes, from my mind to my soul
I'm letting you know
This time, I'm loving myself on time
And I want you to know that I'm letting the past stay behind
And it's gonna be fine this time

[Bridge]
Cause you don't have to be alone
Just pick up the phone and call me
I'll be there whenever you need me
Say ooh-oh oh oh oh

[Chorus]
This time, nobody's gonna stop me
This time, I'm finally free
This time, from my head to my toes, from my mind to my soul
I'm letting you know
This time, I'm loving myself on time
And I want you to know that I'm letting the past stay behind
And it's gonna be fine this time
This time, nobody's gonna stop me
This time, I'm finally free
This time, from my head to my toes, from my mind to my soul
I'm letting you know
This time, I'm loving myself on time
And I want you to know that I'm letting the past stay behind
And it's gonna be fine this time
