I was afraid to fly
Spread my wings high in the sky
Exceed my limits and defy
All the boundaries on my mind
I was afraid to fly
I was incapable of believing
That one day I will be the dream I was feeding
I thought congratulations were only in order when succeeding
But I woke up today and for that, I'm cheering
I thought therefore I was
I thought that I didn't need a cause
A reason
A force
I thought therefore I was
I thought therefore I am
I switched gears and unleashed my fears
I challenged my mind and my soul
I broke mental barriers and chains
That told me I was not worthy as a whole
I grieved as though you were the one
But time, knowledge, and experience taught me it was a chapter of the plan
A plan I am in control of
A plan I wear as a boxing glove
To fight for what I deserve and what I'm worthy of
I switched gears
I switched the was to persevere
I thought therefore I was
I thought therefore I am

I was afraid to fly
Spread my wings high in the sky
Exceed my limits and defy
All the boundaries on my mind

But I woke up today and for that, I'm cheering

But time, knowledge, and experience taught me it was a chapter of the plan
A plan I am in control of
A plan I wear as a boxing glove
To fight for what I deserve and what I'm worthy of
I switched gears
I switched the was to persevere
I thought therefore I was
I thought therefore I am
