I Choose Me

[Verse 1]
I found a door with my name on the frame
No one to blame and no one to tame
I left the map on the kitchen table
Walked out before I felt ready or able

[Pre-Chorus]
They drew a line where my road should bend
I took the pen and erased the end
Every mile is a choice I can make
Every promise is mine to break

[Chorus]
I am free to build the life I want
Free to become what I was not
No borrowed crown, no borrowed throne
I choose the fire and I make it my own
I am free, let the whole world see
The future starts when I choose me

[Verse 2]
I traded doubt for a worn-out pair
A little faith and the open air
The old applause couldn't pull me back
I found my strength in the missing track

[Pre-Chorus]
No perfect sign, no golden gate
I move my feet and I change my fate
If the ground gives way beneath my stride
I will make a bridge from the other side

[Chorus]
I am free to build the life I want
Free to become what I was not
No borrowed crown, no borrowed throne
I choose the fire and I make it my own
I am free, let the whole world see
The future starts when I choose me

[Bridge]
Let the old names fall away
Let the locked rooms lose their shape
I have carried every voice
Now I answer with my choice

[Instrumental]

[Final Chorus]
I am free to build the life I want
Free to become what I was not
No borrowed crown, no borrowed throne
I choose the fire and I make it my own
I am free, louder than the doubt
I found the road and I’m walking out
I am free, let the whole world see
The future starts when I choose me

[Outro]
My hands on the wheel
My heart wide awake
This is the life
I choose to make
