lyrics

Take it in your own hands
Make the choice to get better
I’ve been numb for long now
I’m longing to, I’m longing to
Jump in ocean water
Take the road that’s longer
Try to be a dancer
I’m longing, I’m longing

Take it in your own time
Make the choice to get better
Please don’t hold me hostage
For who I am, for who I was
I could be a dancer
I’m feeling it, Im pacing
Please don’t hold me hostage
For who I am, for who I was
Cause I know in life there are highs and lows
