"Gradually"

Gradually
I will get wiser
I will get stronger
I will be bolder
I will not settle
I will fight back and
I will stand up or
I will sit back

All this time you thought
I was weak when
I was just pretending
I was just pretending then

All this time you
Made me believe that
I should be sorry
I should be sorry

Gradually
I will outrun you
I will outgrow you
I will ignore you
I will see clearer
I'll overcome and
I will acknowledge how
Far i have come

All this time you thought
I was weak when
I was just pretending
I was just pretending then

All this time you
Made me believe that
I should be sorry
You should be sorry
For making me fall

Loo da da da da da...

Gradually
I will get older and
I will get wiser and
I will move slower
I will see clearer
I'll overcome and
I will acknowledge how
Far i have come

All this time
You thought i was weak when
I was just pretending and
I was just pretending and

All this time
You made me believe that
I should be sorry
You should be sorry for
Making me fall

Loo da da da da da...
