Yesterday the verdict came down
but with a little bit of love
that it\'s time to stop letting
anxiety win-It\'s time to rise above!
Rise above the child in me who
is terrified of so many things
And let her go fly around town
I mean, grow a pair of wings
I should be able to get in my car
and drive to the store without fear
And go and get my hair and nails done
without someone I love being near
And when or if anxiety hits, to just
remember no one ever died from it, you know
Just regroup myself and pat myself
on the back for trying to grow
I\'ve limited where I go alone for
far too long now--today, I am done
I\'m hitting the stores by myself!
Can\'t wait \'til I can say I did it! I won!
Today I begin healing.
Time for me to rise above my anxieties.
