Watch Me Soar

I know that it's hard for you to imagine
That I'm not that young girl you once knew
I'm no longer 12, what you see is a woman
Standing in front of you
And I, I have been patient, I have been kind
I paid all my dues and I gave up my time
I can't be confined to the past anymore
My wings have grown

Everyone says just to be thankful, just to be grateful
Or just let it be
But I'm tired of this waiting, it's always tomorrow
I'm done with perceptions that you've had of me
I've given you blood, you've given me tears
I've given my heart and so many years
It's finally time to fend for myself
And open my wings

It's my time to soar, yes
My time
And I don't need you to love me, that's not what I asked
I just want you to see that I'm more than my past
You have expectations, well they're just too small
And I'm dreaming big
So watch me soar
Watch me soar
Watch me soar

It's time to let go, take a leap, touch the sky
Feel the wind press against me as my wings learn to fly
Then soar, I will soar
Watch me soar

Yes, I know that it's hard for you to imagine
That I'm not that young girl you once knew
I'm no longer 12, what you see is a woman
Soaring in front of you
