Songs Title：i choose
Because you never know where life is gonna take you and you can＇t change where you＇ve been
But today I have the opportunity to choose
Here am I now looking at 30 and I got so much to say
I gotta get this off of my chest I gotta let it go today
I was always too concerned about what everybody would think
But I can＇t live for everybody I gotta live my life for me （Yeah）
I pitched a fork in the road of my life and ain＇t nothing gonna happen unless I decide
（And I choose） to be the best that I can be
（I choose） to be authentic in everything I do
My past don＇t dictate who I am I choose （Yeah）
I done been through some painful things I thought that I would never make it through
Filled up with shame from the top of my head to the soles of my shoes
I put myself in so many chaotic circumstances but by the grace of God I＇ve been given so many second chances
But today I decided to let it all go I＇m dropping these bags I＇m making room for my joy
（And I choose） to be the best that I can be
（I choose） to be authentic in everything I do
My past don＇t dictate who I am I choose
Because you never know where life is gonna take you and you can＇t change where you＇ve been
But today I have the opportunity to choose （Hey ey）
I used to have guilt about why things happen they way they did cuz life is gone do what it do
And everyday I have the opportunity to choose
From this day forward I＇m going to be exactly who I am
I don＇t need to change the way that I live just to get a man （NO ）
I even had a talk with my mama and I told her the day I＇m grown ＂from this day forward every decision
I make will be my own ＂ And hey
（And I choose） to be the best that I can be
（I choose） to be courageous in everything I do
My past don＇t dictate who I am I choose
（And I choose） to be the best that I can be
（I choose） to be authentic in everything I do
My past don＇t dictate who I am I choose
Because you never know where life is gonna take you
And you can＇t change where you＇ve been
But today I have the opportunity to choose （Hey ey）
I used to have guilt about why things happen they way they did cuz life is gone do what it do
And everyday I have the opportunity to choose
