Better You, Better Me Alicia Keys

I look into the mirror
And see a different girl
Hiding from herself with
Not a care in the world
Her smile pretends to fool
Those she chooses to please
If they could only see the tears she cries for help
See, I have been that girl
Didn't know which way to turn
Then one day I turned to me

I told myself to wake up
It’s gonna be a brighter day
I just have to believe that
My dreams won't have to wait
At times I've lost my mind
Had to look deep inside
And find a way to get over
Had to swallow my pride
I searched the world for and answer
But I’ve been searching too far
Because I've been here all along

I'm here to make a statement
My place I'm here to claim it
Don't tell me what my name is
I know
I'm gonna make it
I've come to far to lose it
Gotta stay focused
And find a better me
