Better Me Bound

I packed my bags at dawn

Left my old excuses on the lawn

Same boots, different road

Same heart, lighter load

I burned that bad old map

Quit lookin’ back, I don’t do that

If you hear me singin’ loud

That’s me cuttin’ loose from the crowd

One foot out the door

One hand on the wheel

I was never lost

I was just too scared to heal

Moving on, moving on

To a better me, I’m gone

Moving on, moving on

Tell the past to leave me alone

Better me, better me

That’s the name I’m gonna breathe

Moving on, moving on

To a better me, I’m gone

Mama said, “Boy, don’t bend”

You can start right now where you are, my friend

So I work my hands

Build a new life outta second chances

I still miss some nights

But I don’t miss all the fights

I keep a little dust on my boots

But I ain’t wearin’ yesterday’s roots

One foot out the door

One hand on the wheel

I was never lost

I was just too scared to heal

Moving on, moving on

To a better me, I’m gone

Moving on, moving on

Tell the past to leave me alone

Better me, better me

That’s the name I’m gonna breathe

Moving on, moving on

To a better me, I’m gone

If I stumble, I get back up

If I falter, I fill my cup

No more chains around my name

I’m not who I was last summer

Moving on, moving on

To a better me, I’m gone

Moving on, moving on

Tell the past to leave me alone

Better me, better me

That’s the name I’m gonna breathe

Moving on, moving on

To a better me, I’m gone
