Verse 1
After all of the hard work
And all of the things I sacrificed
Now I finally know my worth
The whole of me it has no price (Priceless)
I thought I’d never make it this far
I underestimated myself
And though my life has truly been hard
Now I know the greatness of my wealth

Hook 1
I’m rich in love
I’m rich in peace
I’m rich in hope
I’m rich indeed

Hook 2
I’m ready
This is My Time
All that I’d hoped for is mine
It’s mine, it’s mine
(repeat)

Verse 2
See I can have anything
See I can do anything if I believe
I’ve learned what you want you have to start first
You can’t just sit back and wait on anyone
You’ve got to put your best foot forward
Have faith and take action
‘Cause you never know where that road may lead
You can’t be afraid to take that chance
You’ve got to sow and plant your seed
Adapting to any circumstance

Hooks 1 & 2

Bridge
You’ll know when that moment comes
And childish things are put aside
When you’ve learned to embrace your true self
And you really begin to live your life

Hook 2

Repeat to fade
