Verse

I'm getting out of this neighbourhood

Cause I'm good without you

Everyone told me I never would

but they don't know the truth

Prechorus

I got this need to move my feet

To the beat of the drum

I want this feeling on repeat

It's alright cause tonight

Chorus

I got these new shoes on

I'm dancing all night long

Ain't gonna take them off

Since you been gone

I got these new shoes on

I'm dancing all night long

Ain't gonna take them off

Since you been gone

I've got these new shoes on

from LA to Milan

Forever 21

since you been gone

Nananananana

Verse 2

Suddenly I got this energy

Now I'm breaking free

There's not a place I don't wanna see

Nothing's stopping me

Prechorus

I got this need to move my feet

To the beat of the drum

I want this feeling on repeat

It's alright cause tonight

Chorus

I got these new shoes

I'm dancing all night long

Ain't gonna take them off

Since you been gone

I got these new shoes on

I'm dancing all night long

Ain't gonna take them off

Since you been gone

I've got these new shoes on

from LA to Milan

Forever 21

since you been gone

Nananananana

Nananananana

I'm getting out of this neighbourhood
I'm leaving this place behind because it reminds me of you and I'm better off without you

Cause I'm good without you
I don't need you to be happy

Everyone told me I never would
People didn't believe I could move on, but they don't know how strong I really am

but they don't know the truth
No one knows except me what's best for me

I got this need to move my feet
I have this urge to dance and let loose

To the beat of the drum
I want to dance to the rhythm of the music and forget everything else

I want this feeling on repeat
I want to keep feeling this way over and over again

It's alright cause tonight
It doesn't matter what happens tomorrow, as long as I feel good tonight

I got these new shoes on
I have a new attitude and outlook on life since you've been gone

I'm dancing all night long
I'm letting loose and having fun

Ain't gonna take them off
I'm not going back to the way things were before

Since you been gone
Since I moved on from you

from LA to Milan
I'm going places and exploring the world

Forever 21
I'm always going to feel young and free

Suddenly I got this energy
I feel revived and full of life

Now I'm breaking free
I'm no longer held back by my past

There's not a place I don't wanna see
There's so much to explore and I want to see it all

Nothing's stopping me
I'm unstoppable and nothing can hold me back
