This Is Me…Now Lyrics

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
Growing pains, broke some chains
In every chapter
Now we know what it takes
For our ever after
Took some lefts, now we right
Here where we are
And I sing

This is me now
This is me now
And I took my time
Lot of winters, summers, baby
Had to heal my heart
But I love who I am lately
This is me now

When I was a girl, they’d ask me what I’d be (What you gon’ be?)
A woman in love is what I grew up wanting to be (In love’s what I wanted to be)
It’s my melody, the symphony I sing
And your every word gave me strength to follow my dreams (Yes, you did)

You met me halfway
Face to face, tell the truth
No holding back
We put in work, overcame
All the disasters
Time apart brought us right
Here where we are (Where we’re meant to be)
And I sing (And I sing)

This is me now (Love me as I am)
This is me now (This is me now)
And I took my time (And I took my time)
Lot of winters, summers, baby
Had to heal my heart
But I love who I am lately (Had to do it for myself)
This is me now (Had a lot to learn, had to learn to grow, had to find my way, yeah)

Take me as I am
And I’ll take you as you are
And we’ll build this life together
I found my shooting star
The double the shine, the greener the diamond
One of a kind, the clearer the timing
Ain’t nothing change, you know paps goin’ crazy
Beep-beep, pull up in a black Bugazzi
Baby got a love that’ll last forever
Old tingz, new tingz, it’s a new level
All gas, no brakes, you could come rev it
Baby, you know when you want me
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready

This is me now
This is me now
