Before
[Verse 1]
Thinking all night, thinking all day
About how I used to be before
I'm thinking about her, thinking about me
Always going after more
But she's gone, I get some rest
Don't struggle by me, shutting doors
Thinking all night, thinking all day
About how I used to be before
[Pre-Chorus]
Chains 'round my neck
Not falling back
Won't let you break me down
[Chorus]
And I've figured out
I'm better than I've been before
I am rising high
I'm stronger than I've been before
'Cause I'm not afraid to be alone
And I, I'm breathing on my own
I say, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I am rising high
I'm stronger than I've been before
[Verse 2]
Not picking up sticks, I'm picking up stones
One more but getting less
Some may come and some may go
I'm done feeling like a mess
She was a broken girl
Who always let the pieces fall
I'm thinking about her, I'm thinking about me
Together we are beautiful
[Pre-Chorus]
Chains 'round my neck
Not falling back
Won't let you break me down
[Chorus]
And I've figured out
I'm better than I've been before
I am rising high
I'm stronger than I've been before
'Cause I'm not afraid to be alone
And I, I'm breathing on my own
I say, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I am rising high
I'm stronger than I've been before
[Bridge]
Let go, it's now or never
Won't stay in chains forever
I'm rising higher
I'm getting stronger, yeah yeah
[Chorus]
(And I've figured out)
I'm better than I've been before
(I'm better than I've been, better than I've been)
I am rising high
I'm stronger than I've been before
'Cause I'm not afraid to be alone
And I, I'm breathing on my own
I say, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I am rising high
I am rising high
I'm stronger than I've been before
[Outro]
Thinking all night, thinking all day
About how I used to be before
