Brand New Me

It's been a while I'm not who I was before You look surprised Your words don't burn me anymore Been meanin' to tell ya But I guess it's clear to see Don't be mad It's just a brand new kinda me Can't be bad I found a brand new kinda free Careful with your ego He's the one that we should blame Had to grab my heart back God knows something had to change I thought that you'd be happy I found the one thing I need Why you mad? It's just a brand new kinda me Ooh, it took a long long time to get here It took a brave, brave girl to try It took one too many excuses One too many lies Don't be surprised, don't be surprised If I talk a little louder If I speak up when you're wrong If I walk a little taller I've been under you too long If you notice that I'm different Don't take it personally Don't be mad It's just a brand new kinda me That ain't bad I found a brand new kinda free Ooh, it took a long, long road to get here It took a brave, brave girl to try I've taken one too many excuses One to many lies Don't be surprised, oh, said, you look surprised Hey, if you were a friend You'd wanna get to know me again If you were worth the while You'd be happy to see me smile I'm not expecting sorry I'm too busy finding myself I got this I found me, I found me, yeah I don't need your opinion I'm not waiting for your okay I'll never be perfect, But at least now I'm brave I know my heart is open I can finally breathe Don't be mad It's just a brand new kinda free That ain't bad I found a brand new kinda me Don't be mad It's just a brand new time for me
