Don`t Ask
Standing Up
There was a time I was not so certain
All the games I played just multiplied the hurtin`
Mixed emotions
Never knowing right from wrong
I kept it all inside
Pretending to be strong
I`m a woman to myself I must be true
Finally I believe I know just what to do
I`m standin` up willin` and I`m able
Now I`m standing up for the first time in my life
I`m standing up now I`m ready for love
I was pushed around until I came to find
My insecurity was just a state of mind
Even though I only had myself to blame
Now I`ve learnt to trust my heart
And I`ll never be the same
I`m a woman, but just like anybody else
I`ve got a lot to give, don`t wanna keep it to myself
I`m standin` up, willin` and I`m able
Now I`m standing up for the first time in my life
I`m standing up, now I`m ready for love
