Old Me, New Me

It's Mawi
Yea yea yea yea

Hold me Hold me Hold me
Make sure I don’t become the old me
I don’t wanna still be sad and sorry
When I think back to everything I’ve ever done

(Hey)

Look around (Hey)
Mawi, look around (Look Around)
Don’t you try to tell yourself that you shouldn’t be proud
Made the right decision so that’s not what it’s about
Making up a narrative that keeps putting me down (Putting me down)
It don’t mean that I don’t have regrets
Of all the things that weigh on my soul
But I can’t forget
The things that brought me back
It’s why I never ever ever let go
(Let go)

And I been wishing lately
That your opinion never changed me greatly
Oh I've been hiding low
Yea I’ve been working on myself
Never giving up
Gotta keep my head up
(Head Up)
And I’m doing this my way
It took a while but I’m finally proud of me
But when it gets tough
I gotta never get ahead
Of myself
So I sing in my head

Hold me Hold me Hold me
Make sure I don’t become the old me
I don’t wanna still be sad and sorry
When I think back to everything I’ve ever done
(Ever done)
Tell me Tell me Tell me
That I will never be the old me
I don't think there’s an ounce within me
That would still do the things I wish I never done

I’ve been down
Lately I’ve been down
Wondering just how I let you put me in the ground
(Put me in the ground)
Left me with no option so I left without a sound
Should’ve done it earlier but I know better now
Why I gotta listen to the voice in my head
(My head)
Why I never listen to my heart instead
(Instead)
Life it isn’t fair
And I’m not given a spare
So I’m own my own imma start right here
(Right here)

And I been wishing lately
That your opinion never changed me greatly
Oh I've been hiding low
Yea I’ve been working on myself
Never giving up
Gotta keep my head up
And I’m doing this my way
It took a while but I’m finally proud of me
But when it gets tough
I gotta never get ahead
Of myself
So I sing in my head

Hold me Hold me Hold me
Make sure I don’t become the old me
(Don’t become the old me)
I don’t wanna still be sad and sorry
When I think back to everything I’ve ever done
(I’ve ever done)
Tell me Tell me Tell me
That I will never be the old me
(Never be the old me)
I don't think there’s an ounce within me
That would still do the things I wish I never done

Tell me Tell me Tell me
That I will never be the old me
I don't think there’s an ounce within me
That would still do the things I wish I never done
