Leah Haywood - Promise lyrics

[Verse 1] What you think about this? I been holding it in, now I'm letting it flow What you think about this? I'm gonna do my own thing, yeah, I'm flying solo So don't tell me how it's gonna be On my own, and the thing of it is There's nothing 'round here that I'm gonna miss [Pre-Chorus 1] Cause you're holding me down, I just wanna fly There comes a time when I gotta say goodbye To the life that you see me in Here's where I begin [Chorus] And I promise myself, I ain't nobody's I just wanna be free And I promise myself, even though it don't always come easy Gonna learn from my pain, never explain Do it my way, that's what I say Promise myself, I'm the only one who will believe me [Verse 2] There's a voice in my head Telling me, "Come on, come on, move on." There's a voice in my head Telling me I know my right from wrong They say what doesn't k** you can make you strong Now I know what it means You can try to bend, but you ain't breaking my dreams [Pre-Chorus 2] I'll be making mistakes, coming up at a loss I'll be tumbling down, but like MC, shake it off I'll stay cool, cause I know who's boss Of me, myself and I [Chorus] And I promise myself, I ain't nobody's I just wanna be free And I promise myself, even though it don't always come easy Gonna learn from my pain, never explain Do it my way, that's what I say Promise myself, I'm the only one who will believe me [Bridge] I'll keep moving, even when the beat is gone I will, I'm on, I want I'll keep doing what I got to do to carry on And on, I will, I'm on [Pre-Chrous 3] So don't hold me down, cause I'm gonna fly And the time has come and I gotta say goodbye To the life that you see me in Here's where I begin [Chorus] (2x) And I promise myself, I ain't nobody's I just wanna be free And I promise myself, even though it don't always come easy Gonna learn from my pain, never explain Do it my way, that's what I say Promise myself, I'm the only one who will believe me
