It's been a while, I'm not who I was before You looked 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 a brand new kind of me Can't be bad, I've found a brand new kind of free Careful with your ego, he's the one we should blame Had to grab my heart back, God knows something had to change Thought that you'd be heppy, I found the one thing that I need Why you mad? It's Just a 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 and 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've been under you too long If you've noticed that I'm different, don't take it personally Don't be mad, it's just a brand new kind of me Can't be bad, I found a brand new kind of free Ohhhh, It took a long, long road to get here It took a brave, brave girl to try I've taken one too many excuses and one too many lies Don't be surprised, ohhhh said you look surprised, hey! If you were a friend You'd wanna get to know me again If you were worth the while You'd be happy to see me smile I'm not expecting a sorry I'm too busy finding myself I got this, I found me, I found me yeeaahh! I don't need your opinion, not waiting for your OK I'll never be perfect but at least now I'm brave And now my heart is open I can finally breathe Don't be mad, it's just a brand new kind of free That ain't bad, I've found a brand new kind of free Don't be mad, it's a brand new time for me
