Last night the fear got the best in me Today I promise that I
Not letting fear control my life anymore
If there’s an open door
I’m going thru it
Not going to miss my chance to fly Cause I’m
Not letting fear control my life anymore
Liberation
Can’t go thru another day unconsciously I’ve learned the lesson that I need so I Not letting fear control my life anymore
Liberation
Understanding
How it feels to be free
Now that I know
Who I am I can put
The confidence in me
No longer will I stand on the side As my dreams fly by
Cause that’s not right
You’re meant to fly
Cause I’m gonna be
Now I gotta try
Not letting fear control my life anymore
Liberation
Act like
Like you already have it Sing like
Like you already know it Live like
Like you already achieved it Be like
Like you already own it Move like
Album Lyrics
Like you know where you going Stand like
Like you already see it
Dance like
Like no one is watching
Love like
Like your heart really means it

I remember when
You and her were in the pictures I don’t wanna lie
Got me going in circles
Got me feeling so crazy right now I don’t even understand it
Am I going crazy right now
I don’t even understand it
Ooo I’m feeling so lost Got me so addicted to you When I needed some
Ooo I pick up the phone You’re always on call
So I want it all, all, all, all Now you’re here but
Oh, oh, oh, oh no
Hold, hold, hold, hold on Feel so wrong
But I know what I want And I feel like
Oh, oh, oh, oh no
Hold, hold, hold, hold on Feel so wrong
But I know what I want
Oh I’m so caught up right now
I don’t wanna hear another sound
Said you wouldn’t see her
But her name is Sophia
What you thought, I’m never gonna see her see her
What’s a girl to do What’s a girl to do
Got me going crazy right now Am I going crazy right now
Ooo I’m feeling so lost Got me so addicted to you When I needed some
Ooo I pick up the phone You’re always on call
So I want it all, all, all, all Now you’re here but
Oh, oh, oh, oh no
Hold, hold, hold, hold on Feel so wrong
But I know what I want And I feel like
Oh, oh, oh, oh no
Hold, hold, hold, hold on Feel so wrong
But I know what I want

I don’t wanna stay in one space
I don’t wanna get stuck in this one space The world is too big not to play Crossing over water, new things
Earn new wings
There ain’t no lanes, no Reason to change do What you want
I am a free soul Learning as I go, oh
Oh I don’t see no limits nowhere
I don’t wanna ceiling on me nowhere I just want to be who I am
No cares on me, no
Oh I don’t see no limits nowhere
I don’t wanna ceiling on me nowhere I just want to be who I am
No cares for me, no
I can get things from you You can learn things from me
Harmonies
Mix our culture, the vibe Share our love, not divide Reach new highs
There ain’t no lanes no Reason to change do What you want
I am a free soul Learning as I go, oh
Oh I don’t see no limits nowhere
I don’t wanna ceiling on me nowhere I just want to be who I am
No cares on me, no
Oh I don’t see no limits nowhere
I don’t wanna ceiling on me nowhere I just want to be who I am
No cares for me, no
No, no, no, no boundaries on me where I go No, no, no, no boundaries on me where I go No, no, no, no boundaries on me where I go No, no, no, no boundaries on me where I go
Oh I don’t see no limits nowhere
I don’t wanna ceiling on me nowhere I just want to be who I am
No cares on me, no
Oh I don’t see no limits nowhere
I don’t wanna ceiling on me nowhere I just want to be who I am
No cares for me, no

Some say, I like it the hard way
But I’ll say, I never had it easy... no, no Life plays, the way you show it to
So I’ll sing, to find love in the truth
Who knew to find you, I had to go out and see the world Who can I run to if I can’t love what’s in the mirror
So many lifetimes, lifestyles, can’t put it in words
But I feel what I feel, and that’s my main concern
Tell me when did you know Tell me where could we go It is so beautiful
To just pack up and be
Up and away with ya
Send me up, send me up, up and away with ya Send me up, send me up, up and away with ya
You shine, like the springtime
You’re in full bloom, how you consume
Every thought I share, it never can compare When we fade away, every time you save the day
Who knew to find you, I had to go out and see the world Who can I run to if I can’t love what’s in the mirror
So many lifetimes, lifestyles can’t put it in words
But I feel what I feel and that’s my main concern
Tell me when did you know, tell me where could we go
It is so beautiful to just pack up and be up and away with ya Send me up, send me up, up and away with ya
Send me up, send me up, up and away with ya
Send me up, send me up, up and away with ya
Send me up, send me up, up and away with ya
Baby won’t you send me, send me up Baby won’t you send me, send me up Baby won’t you send me, send me up Baby won’t you send me, send me up

Deep as the ocean soft as the sky I set in motion
A dream that I,
Iʼve known could be mine
For some time
Oh what a foretaste of glory divine Iʼm human on a
Supernatural journey
On my own path
Guided by my star
Iʼve come so far
Thereʼs just one path for me Some call it destiny
My mind and heart agree What is for me is for me Yes, I get lonely
But I am enough for me My mind and heart agree What is for me is...
Whatever I want Whenever I choose Youʼll never see me cry Though, I do get the blues See, I believe in myself
I donʼt need you to
I know what I know
I know that I canʼt lose
I follow no one
I RISE like the sun
Iʼm enough
Iʼm the one
Iʼm the one
Iʼm the one
Iʼm all I need
Itʼs all in me
The world is mine indeed Yes, indeed
Yes indeed
Thereʼs just one path for me Some call it destiny
My mind and heart agree What is for me is for me Yes, I get lonely
But I am enough for me My mind and heart agree What is for me is...
Thereʼs just one path for me Some call it destiny
My mind and heart agree What is for me is for me Yes, I get lonely
But I am enough for me My mind and heart agree What is for me is...

Revived
And oooh, I am who
I always wanted to be (Can you hear me, now?) Whoa now, I ainʼt nobodyʼs fool (Iʼm a)
Little bit new
Little bit old school
Iʼm allota cool things
And Iʼm hotter than you
How you like me, now?
Now that Iʼve found found my calling
(Calling, Calling) Now they be calling Calling me, now calling
