First
I've just taken my first breath
of this air's oxygen.
I've just felt the smooth earth
of this new place I'm in.
Because for the first time in my life,
I feel like I can fly.
Hello, new world, it's me,
Wrap me in your big blue sky.
Close the door on my past;
Kiss my old face goodbye.
I've just cried my first tear
from these opened eyes.
I've just screamed my heart out
from these new insides.
Because for the first time in my life,
I know I have to try.
Hello, new world, it's me,
This time there's no alibi.
Open the door to the future;
Give this new face a try.
Today is my first chance to shine.
