Lyrics for Pia Toscano – This Time

[Pia Toscano – Verse 1:]
Well I’m mad as hell
I ain’t gon’ take it no more
My bag is packed up at the back of your door
‘Cause I don’t know who I am no more
You won the battle but you lost the war
I’ve been in denial, now I’m living the truth
Been down for a while, now I’m standing up to you

[Chorus:]
This time, this time I’m gonna do it my away
This time, I’m finding out the hard away
This time, I’m gonna go back to the girl I was on the night you found me
No more, closing back the real me
Just wait, in a minute you’ll see
This time, is in time, it’s my time
Getting back to the real me

[Verse 2:]
Don’t try to stop me with the words you say
‘Cause I’m sick and tired of the games you play
I’m gonna free myself, gonna make a change
And like a butterfly, I’mma spread my wings
Been crying for too long, now I’m drying my eyes
Grounded for so long, now it’s time for me to fly

[Chorus:]
This time, this time I’m gonna do it my away
This time, I’m finding out the hard away
This time, I’m gonna go back to the girl I was on the night you found me
No more, closing back the real me
Just wait, in a minute you’ll see
This time, is in time, it’s my time
Getting back to the real me

[Bridge:]
I’m mad as hell
I can’t take it no more
My bag is packed up at the back of your door

I promise you, This Time!

[Chorus:]
This time, this time I’m gonna do it my away
This time, I’m finding out the hard away
This time, I’m gonna go back to the girl I was on the night you found me
No more, closing back the real me
Just wait, in a minute you’ll see
This time, is in time, it’s my time
Getting back to the real me
