This Is Me…Now (Apple Music Live)
[Intro]
This Is Me...Then really captured a moment in time. Now it does have a happy ending. And the reason we're here is because I want to capture the moment in time 'cause it is even better than the first time. I said, I learned a lot in those twenty years. But the biggest thing was to accept myself. You know, to finally get to a point where I can say, "This is me." Messy parts, the broken parts, the beautiful parts, the strong parts. Imperfect and ever evolving and ever changing. This is me now. It's the greatest love story never told for two reasons. Because it's this incredibly epic long love story about getting a second chance, yes, but it's also the story about learning to be in love with yourself. That's the greatest love story never told. Then maybe a miracle can happen. If you have lost, hope, almost given up. don't. Because true love does exist. And some things do last forever. thats real and I want to put that message out into the world.
[Verse 1]
I watched my mother miss out on her life
All those could-have-beens became her sacrifice
But here in the darkness, it's not the future nor the past
And 'cause it's meant to be with you, boy, it will last
You met me halfway
[Pre-Chorus]
Growin' pains, broke some chains in every chapter
Now we know what it takes for our ever after
Took some lefts, now we're right here where we are
And I sing
[Chorus]
This is me now
This is me now
And I took my time, lot of winters, summers, baby
And I healed my heart, but I love who I am lately
This is me now
[Bridge 1]
Take me as I am
And I'll take you as you are (And I will)
And we'll build this life together
I found my shootin' star
The double the shine, the greener the diamond
One of a kind, the clearer the timing
Ain't nothin' change, you know paps goin' crazy
Beep-beep, pull up in a black Bugazzi
Baby, got a love that'll last forever
Old things, new things, it's a new level
All gas, no brakes, you could come rev it
Baby, you know when you want me
[Refrain]
I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
This is me now
This is me now
Stop
[Bridge 2]
This is me now
This is me now
This is me (Come on, hands up)
This is me (If you love who you are)
This is me (Sing it loud)
This is me (Yes)
This is me now
[Chorus]
And I took my time
Lot of winters, summers, baby
And I healed my heart
But I love who I am lately
This is me now (Thank you so much)
[Outro]
This is me
This is me
This is me
This is me
This is me
This is me
This is me
This is me (Thank you so much)
This is me
This is me ([?])
This is me (Can you give it up for this amazing band?)
This is me
This is me
This is me
This is me
This is me (Give it up for the dancers, too)
This is me
This is me
This is me
This is me
This is me
This is me
