[Intro]
Old wounds healed, but lessons stay,
Guiding me through every day.
No looking back, just forward strides,
In this new light, my spirit rides.
[Verse 1 – Bold & Confident]
Back then, I fought with fists and pride,
Took every hit, but never let it slide.
Jokes turned to blows, I’d stand my ground,
Old me was lost, always battle-bound.
But now I walk with calm and grace,
Took a hit, then I changed my pace.
Found the truth deep in my soul,
[Bridge]
I’m rising up, can’t hold me down,
From ashes, I claim my crown.
New day dawning, hear my sound,
This is me, no backing dow
[ pre-chorus ]
I’ve been walking down this road so long,
Shedding skins, I’m growing strong.
The past is gone, I’m moving on,
Feel the beat, hear my song.
[Course]
The old me is dead and gone, closed that door,
New roads calling, I want more.
Shadows fade, light breaks through,
Brand new soul, shining through. I'm not the same as I once was. They say they know me but the old me is dead and gone, gone, gone
[Bridge]
I’m rising up, can’t hold me down,
From ashes, I claim my crown.
New day dawning, hear my sound,
This is me, no backing down.
[Verse2]
Lost in the noise, I used to roam,
Chasing shadows, far from home.
But through the storm, I found my way,
Breaking dawn, a brighter day. A brief moment I look back, saw an old picture who I once was. I'm unrecognizable, even to myself. Soul has shifted into a higher bean now i'm the person who I always was meant to be.
[Bridge]
I’m rising up, can’t hold me down,
From ashes, I claim my crown.
New day dawning, hear my sound,
This is me, no backing down.
[ pre-chorus ]
I’ve been walking down this road so long,
Shedding skins, I’m growing strong.
The past is gone, I’m moving on,
Feel the beat, hear my song.
[Course - final drop ]
The old me is dead and gone, closed that door,
New roads calling, I want more.
Shadows fade, light breaks through,
Brand new soul, shining through. I'm not the same as I once was. They say they know me but the old me is dead and gone, gone, gone
[Bridge]
I’m rising up, can’t hold me down,
From ashes, I claim my crown.
New day dawning, hear my sound,
This is me, no backing down.
[CLOSING -OUT ]
Went to a reader when I was younger. She told me my soul was gonna change
Old me is dead and gone
OA is here to stay.
OA is here to stay...... Hear to stay stay stay .
