Using my heart for other reasons than living
Today I can be the same woman as I was yesterday
Or I can be the change I want to see
Today I can let my anxiety take over me
Or I can step out on the track without a care in the world
Today I can run and hide from my fears
Or I can conquer them
Today I can run for everyone
Or I can just run for me
Today I can run trying to win you back,
trying to prove that you're still the one
Or I can run knowing that I've moved on
Today I can run to make my coach happy or my dearest parents, brothers or sisters
Or I can can run to make me happy
Today I can run for scholarships, trying to prove to them all that I'm good enough
Or I can run knowing that I am good enough
Today I can run against my teammates and rival schools,
Or today I can race against time
Today I can run with my legs
But today I refuse to do that
Instead I will let my heart take over
Today I will fly because everytime I run I tend to fall
No, today I will soar
Today the gun will go off, and I will break records
Because I finally saw the change in me that I wanted to see
