“brand new”

A song from me to me. I started writing it during a very transformational time in my life. I wasn’t sure where I was landing. At 30, I am finally seeing the beginnings of the ground I now sit on. There was this fear that by changing, it meant the me before wasn’t real. However, it is okay to change, and it’s okay to be empathetic to the person you were before while fully embracing and choosing to the new version of yourself.

Heard you got a new look now

Heard you got a new phone now

The switch up look real wow, the switch up look real now

She don't even know you, I remember the real you

Is the new you true?

Can I just be the old you

Can I just see the real you

The old you 

Can I just be the old you, again

Can I just see, the real you


The me I locked away, will always be here

But I overstayed, my welcome

The me that walked away, will always know me

But I overstayed, my welcome

The me that fell away, I’ll always love you

But you overstayed, my welcome

There is no need for you, yesterday, cuz I am here to stay (cuz here I am, today)

Your welcome

(Refrain)

Brand New, not actin brand new
I am the real you

I am the real you 

True
