Shaping My Universe Songtext / Lyric

I used to live on coffee and nicotine

Used to think that I knew everything

Used to put things off 'til never

Acting like I'm o' so clever

Collected friends that couldn't be trusted

Searched for love that never lasted

Used to take this life for granted

Judged myself not up to standard



CHORUS

But I can choose to be

The me I wanna be

When I finally learn

I'm shaping my universe

But I can choose to be

The me I wanna be

When I finally learn

I'm shaping my universe






Used to think TV was the whole world

Used to need to feel like a cover girl

All the while a junk food junkie

Caught up in how people saw me

Thought I was the centre of gravity

Tryin' to pin the blame on somebody

Money was the holy grail

Always fearing I would fail



CHORUS

But I can choose to be

The me I wanna be

When I finally learn

I'm shaping my universe

But I can choose to be

The me I wanna be

When I finally learn

I'm shaping my universe



My attitudes build the world I live in

Controlling what I take and what I'm given

What if changing, changing my life

Is as simple as changing my mind



Fear would always leave me paralysed

Always tried to believe my own lies

Never would forgive or forget

Never thought my soul important



CHORUS

But I can choose to be

The me I wanna be

When I finally learn

I'm shaping my universe

But I can choose to be

The me I wanna be

When I finally learn

I'm shaping my universe
