Take a look, look into my eyes

You'll see someone you don't recognize

You'll see someone who looks like me

But I'm not the me I used to be

Found I could fall, but I could get up

And after all, I could hold my head up

I made it out, I made it through

I'm someone now, I'm someone new

But you could say you knew me then

You could say you knew me when

You knew me when I was on the edge

And my confidence was shattered

You knew me when I didn't know my worth

Didn't know how much I mattered

You knew me when you thought you could keep me down, no

You knew me when, you knew me then

But you don't know me now

You look surprised to see I've changed

But I've turned the key and I've turned the page

Stepped out the dark into the sun

To a whole new me that I've become

I was scared, had so much fear then

Now I'm free, now I'm fearless

Took too much for too long

I'm someone now, I'm someone strong

And you could say you knew me then

You could say you knew me when

You knew me when I was on the edge

And my confidence was shattered

You knew me when I didn't know my worth

Didn't know how much I mattered

You knew me when you thought you keep get me down, no

You knew me when, you knew me then

But you don't know me now

I'm a little wiser, reaching higher

It's a battle but I'm a fighter

This time there'll be no surrender, no

And you could say you knew me when

You could say you knew me when

You knew me when I was on the edge

And my confidence was shattered

You knew me when I didn't know my worth

Didn't know how much I mattered

You knew me when you thought you could keep me down, oh no

You knew me when

You knew me when, you knew me then

But you don't know me now

You knew me then, you knew me when

But you don't know me now
