Текст песни Brand New Me (Live) - Alicia Keys

It's been a while
I'm not who I was before
You look surprised
Your words don't burn me anymore
Been meaning to tell you
But I guess it's clear to see
Don't be mad, it's just
The brand new kind of me
Can't be bad, I found
A brand new kind of free
Careful with your ego
He's the one that we should blame
Had to grab my heart back
God knows something had to change
I thought that you'd be happy
I found the one thing I need
Why you mad?
It's just the brand new kind of me
It took a long
Long time to get here
It took a brave
Brave girl to try
It took one too many excuses
One too many lies
Don't be surprised
Don't be surprised
If I talk a little louder
If I speak up when you're wrong
If I walk a little taller
I'd been under you too long
If you noticed that I'm different
Don't take it personally
Don't be mad, it's just
A brand new kind of me
And it ain't bad
I found a brand new kind of free
Oh, it took a long
Long road to get here
It took a brave
Brave girl to try
I've taken one too many excuses
One too many lies
Don't be surprised, oh
See you look surprised
Hey, if you were a friend
You want to get know me again
If you were worth a while
You'd be happy to see me smile
I'm not expecting sorry
I'm too busy finding myself
I got this, I found me, I found me, yeah
I don't need your opinion
I'm not waiting for your okay
I'll never be perfect
But at least now I'm brave
Now my heart is open
And I can finally breathe
Don't be mad, it's just
A brand new kind of free
That ain't bad, I found
A brand new kind of me
Don't be mad
It's a brand new time for me
