Taking Back My Brave
|
(CDJ/Sunny Russ)
|
|
I am from a tiny town
|
Where I learned how to tough it out
|
Where I kicked the dirt and my dreams around
|
To conquer the whole world
|
My uncle slipped me fifty bucks
|
Some rolled there eyes and wished me luck
|
Yeah I spent the first night in the cab of my truck
|
And I am still that girl
|
|
I like a challenge, I like to fly
|
I'm not always perfect, I'm not always right
|
When I go to weddings
|
It always makes me cry
|
My heart is fragile, and I can be hurt
|
I can crumble inside at the drop of a word
|
But I can jump off a limb
|
Into a river of change
|
I'm taking back my brave
|
|
I kinda lost it for awhile
|
Had to force myself to smile
|
I quit going that extra mile
|
Abandoned my belief
|
And I spent hours on the phone
|
Crawling back to my comfort zone
|
|
|
Then I woke up one day and said I'm not running home
|
It's just not like me cause…
|
|
I like a challenge, I like to fly
|
I'm not always perfect, I'm not always right
|
Newborn babies always make me cry
|
My heart is fragile, and I can be hurt
|
I can crumble inside at the drop of a word
|
But I can jump off a limb
|
Into a river of change
|
I'm taking back my brave
|
|
I'm my momma's only girl
|
The child in the middle
|
I've been pushing the limits
|
Since I was little…..yeah
