Starting New
Normandie Lyrics

Started out on the street
I began my journey in a place of hardship and struggle.

Invisible and alone
I felt unnoticed and insignificant to the world.

Bruised up and let down
I have been physically and emotionally hurt and disappointed in the past.

From the past that won't stop haunting me in my sleep
My past traumas continue to affect me even during my times of rest.

And when you keep counting numbers i keep counting days
Others may be focused on external markers of success, but I am more concerned with the passage of time and my personal growth.

My memories are painted on my face
The pain and hardship I have experienced are evident in my physical appearance.

I don't know what I'm running from i don't know where to hide
I am unsure about the root of my struggles and how to escape them.

But there is something going inside
Despite my uncertainty, I sense that there is an internal shift taking place within me.

It's like I'm giving it up
I am letting go of past hurt and pain.

It's something i aint missing
I don't feel the need to hold onto what has hurt me in the past.

I start to give it away everything I hold inside
I am releasing my inner turmoil and emotions.

Im gonna start over new
I am beginning a new chapter in my life.

A cleaner slate is all i ever asked for i'm giving it up
All I ever wanted was a chance to start fresh and I am willing to let go of what has held me back to make that happen.

So i can stand on solid ground I'm starting new
I am seeking a stable foundation upon which to rebuild my life.

Now I'm living my dream
I am achieving my goals and aspirations.

On the top of the world i see
I feel a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction in my current position.

Everything that i've been wishing for is right beneath my feet
My dreams and desires have become a reality.

I don't know what i'm searching for but i know what i've found
While I may not have had a clear idea of what I wanted, I am content with what I have now.

I've been searching all my life to feel something Just to fill out this void, to fill out this void
My struggles have stemmed from a sense of emptiness that I have been trying to fill for my entire life.

I've been searching all my life to feel anything
I have been desperately seeking some sort of fulfillment.

I just wanna feel whole
All I truly desire is to feel complete and content.

So i'm gonna give everything away just to feel alive
I am willing to sacrifice everything in order to feel truly alive and whole.

I'm giving it up just to feel alive I'm starting new
By letting go of my past and embracing new beginnings, I am finding a renewed sense of life and purpose.
