Natalie Weiss - I Choose

Текст песни

Because you never know where life is gonna take you,
And you can’t change where you’ve been,
But today, I have the opportunity to choose.
Here I am looking at thirty, and I got so much to say.
I gotta get this off of my chest.
I gotta let it go today.
I was always too concerned with what everbody would think,
But I can’t live for everybody.
I gotta live my life for me.
I’ve reached a fork in the road of my life.
Ain’t nothing gonna happen unless I decide.
I choose
to be the best that I can be.
I choose
to be authentic in everything
I do
My past don’t dictate who I am
I choose
I done been through some painful things.
I thought that I would never make it through.
Built up with shame from the top of my head to the soles of my shoes.
I put myself in so many chaotic circumstances.
By the grace of god I’ve been given so many second chances,
But today I decided to let it all go.
I’m dropping these bags I’m making room for my choice.
I choose
to be the best that I can be.
I choose
to be authentic in everything
I do.
My past don’t dictate who I am.
I choose.
Because you never know where life is gonna take you,
And you can’t change where you’ve been,
But today I have the opportunity to choose.
Release the guilt about what things have been the way they do
Cuz life is gonna do what it do,
And today I have the opporutnity to choose
From this day forward I’m going to be exactly who I am.
I don’t need to change the way that I live just to get a man.
I even had a talk with my mama, and I told her the day I’m grown,
From this day forward every decision that I make will be my own.
I choose
to be the best that I can be.
I choose
to be courageous in everything
I do.
My past don’t dictate who I am.
I choose.
I choose
to be the best that I can be.
I choose.
I choose.
