Try it on my own lyrics

I'm wiser now

I'm not the foolish girl you used to know

So long ago

I'm stronger now

I've learned from my mistakes which way to go

And I should know

I put myself aside to do it your way

But now I need to do it all alone

And I am not afraid to try it on my own

I don't care if I'm right or wrong

I'll live my life the way I feel

No matter what I'll keep it real you know

Time for me to do it on my own

Yeah yeah, mmm, yeah yeah

It's over now

I can't go back to living through your eyes

Too many lies

And if you don't know by now

I can't go back to being someone else

Not anymore

I never had a chance to do things my way

So now it's time for me to take control

And I am not afraid to try it on my own

I don't care if I'm right or wrong

I'll live my life the way I feel

No matter what I'm gonna keep it real you know

Time for me to do it

Oh I start again go back to one

I'm running things my way

Can't stop me now, I've just begun

Don't even think about it

There ain't no way about it

I'm taking names, the ones of mine

Yes I'm gonna take my turn

It's time for me to finally stand alone, stand alone

I am not afraid to try it on my own

And I don't care if I'm right or wrong

I'll live my life the way I feel

No matter what I'm gonna keep it real you know

It's time for me to do it

See I'm not afraid
