New Beginning

MY WORK AIN’T DONE

Verse 1

Everybody thinks the story ends

When you finally walk away

When you stop crying

Stop explaining

Stop begging someone to stay

But that’s not where my story ends

That’s where it begins

Because healing isn’t the finish line

It’s the first step in

I spent years surviving

Now I get to live

I spent years pouring

Now I get to receive

I spent years building everybody else

Now I get to build me

Pre-Chorus

I didn’t come this far

Just to stop right here

I didn’t fight these battles

Just to disappear

Chorus

My work ain’t done

It’s just beginning

My season ain’t over

I’m just stepping in it

I got dreams to build

Places to see

People to help

And a better version of me

My work ain’t done

I’m finally winning

The chapter closed

But the book ain’t finished

This ain’t the end

This is the start

My work ain’t done

I’m just beginning

Verse 2

I got houses to buy

Families to help

Generations to change

And wisdom to tell

I got grandbabies watching

I got seeds to plant

I got prayers unanswered

And mountains that I can

Still climb

Still conquer

Still become

The woman I was born to be

Not the woman they needed

Not the woman they used

Not the woman they blamed

Not the woman they misunderstood

The woman God created

Before the world told her who she should be

Pre-Chorus

I got too much life

Left inside of me

To stay trapped

In yesterday’s memories

Chorus

My work ain’t done

It’s just beginning

My season ain’t over

I’m just stepping in it

I got dreams to build

Places to see

People to help

And a better version of me

My work ain’t done

I’m finally winning

The chapter closed

But the book ain’t finished

This ain’t the end

This is the start

My work ain’t done

I’m just beginning

Bridge

I don’t regret the roads

I don’t regret the pain

Every loss taught me something

Every storm brought rain

Every tear watered seeds

I couldn’t see back then

Now they’re growing into blessings

Again and again

The bridge I built behind me

Got me where I am today

But I’m not standing on the bridge

I’m walking away

Toward purpose

Toward peace

Toward joy

Toward me

Final Chorus

My work ain’t done

It’s just beginning

I survived the breaking

Now I’m living

I got love to give

But not at my expense

I got wisdom earned

And common sense

My work ain’t done

I’m still becoming

Still healing

Still growing

Still overcoming

And when they ask me

How I made it through

I’ll smile and say

I finally chose me too

My work ain’t done

It’s just beginning

And for the first time

I’m excited about the ending.
