Lyrics

I’m feeling ready today, like nothing’s gonna get in my way
I used to feel so small, fell so deep no one heard my call
My world is changing tonight, I’m out of fear and I’m ready to fight
Cause yesterday is gone and I’m moving on

Cause this is the first day of the rest of my life
I’m gonna make it count, gonna make it alright
I got a fire in my heart and a glitter in my eye
I’m gonna rise above them all until I touch the sky
The past is in the past and so say goodbye, and so say goodbye

My parents had dreams for me, but that is not who I wanna be
so mommy please don’t cry, and daddy please don’t ask why
This is my life and this is my chance
and I’m gonna take a stance before it’s too late
No, it can’t be too late, nothing’s gonna shake me this time

Cause this is the first day of the rest of my life
I’m gonna make it count, gonna make it alright
I got a fire in my heart and a glitter in my eye
I’m gonna rise above them all until I touch the sky
The past is in the past and so say goodbye, and so say goodbye

Words hurt, I know, but you’ve got the power to let them go
Have no regrets, you are more than you think you are, just look into your heart
Don’t look back and fly, so please don’t cry, and please don’t ask why
This is your life and this is your chance
and you’re gonna take a stance before it’s too late
No, it’s never too late

Cause this is the first day of the rest of your life
you’re gonna make it count, gonna make it alright
There is a fire in your heart and a glitter in your eye
You can rise above them all until you touch the sky
The past is in the past and so just say goodbye, and so just say goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
And so just say, and so just say goodbye
