Standing Up

There was a time
I was not so certain
All the games
I played, just multiplied the hurtin
Mixed emotions never knowing right from wrong
I kept it all inside pretending to be strong
Im a woman, to myself
I must be true
Finally I believe
I know just what to do
Im standin up, willin and
Im ableNow
Im standing up for the first time in my life
Im standing up, now
Im ready for love
I was pushed around until
I came to find
My insecurity was just a state of mind
Even though
I only had myself to blame
Now Ive learnt to trust my heart and
Ill never be the same
Im a woman but just like anybody else
Ive got a lot to give, dont wanna keep it to myself
Im standin up, willin and
Im ableNow
Im standing up for the first time in my life
Im standing up, now
Im ready for love
