Turning to Myself

(hmmm, yeah, yeah)

I spent a lifetime looking out for everyone else.

Now it's my turn.

I held the weight

of every heavy heart

Built them a shelter

while I fell apart (oh yes I did)

Keeping them warm

inside the freezing cold

Buying their stories

while my own got sold

But the rain has cleared

away (it's cleared away)

And I'm standing here

today

Now I'm putting me first,

choosing my own road

Laying down

the heavy load I survived the fire,

I made it through the

storm (yes I did) Keeping

my own spirit warm

No more apologies

for breathing free

This is the healing

that was meant for me (oh-oh-oh)

I paid my dues,

I carried every pain

But I'm the one who's

dancing in the rain

I'm putting me first...

(putting me first) Yeah,

I survived it all (survived it all) Look at me

now...
