Been on the losin' side
This time I'll turn the tide
This time I won't give up
Oh no, baby
This time I'm in control
I want the whole world to know
Ain't nothing can slow me down
This weird faith is on my side
And I'm givin' all I've got
Yeah baby
Count every step straight to the top

(Chorus) And if the river's too wide, I'll get through it

And if the mountain's too high, it won't stop this dream of mine
I'm on my way, I've got a plan
I'm makin' my way any way that I can

So many times I've play
Someone else's game
This time the game is changed
Oh baby
This time I make the rules
I won't be nobody's fool
Ain't no one to hold me down this time
These words gonna be mine
There's a brand new strength I've found
Yeah
Ain't looking back, ain't backing down
(Chorus twice)

This time around
I'll stand my ground, I'll live my dream
I realize the power lays deep in me
(Nothing's gonna stop me this time, I'm on my way)
Yeah

Been on the losin' side
This time I'll turn the tide
This time I won't give up
I want the whole world to know
Ain't nothing to slow me down this time
The weird faith is on my side
And I'm giving all I got
Yeah baby
Count every step straight to the top
(Chorus fades out)
