I heard this song for the first time on the radio today. I heard the words and found it inspiring

There's More To Me Than You

Written by Jessica Andrews, James T Slater, Marcel Chagnon

I spent years and all of this time,
Thinking I was better off 'cause you were mine.
You always said it was your way or the highway.
So I'm shiftin my life into drive,
I'm getting out, kissin' the past goodbye.
Like Toby said: "How do you like me now?"
This conversation has run dry,
And I keep telling myself.

Ooh, ooh, ooh, there's more to me than you.
Ooh, ooh, don't underestimate what I can do.
Well, I'm all right, it's ok.
I know I'll make it through.
'Cause there's more to me than you.

I'm not sayin I"m battered and bruised,
But I might as well be with the words you use.
I believe in myself, that makes me stronger.
Things change, an' so have I.
I'm gonna make hay while the sun still shines,
You can clip my wings, I'm still gonna fly.
I'm on my own and on my way,
And I keep telling myself.

Ooh, ooh, ooh, there's more to me than you.
Ooh, ooh, don't underestimate what I can do.
Well, I'm all right, it's ok.
I know I'll make it through.
'Cause there's more to me than you.

There was always something that meant more to you than me.
And I'm just sorry it's taken this for you to see, yeah.

Ooh, ooh, ooh, there's more to me than you.
Well, I'm all right, it's ok.
I know I'll make it through.
'Cause there's more to me than you.

Ooh, ooh, ooh, there's more to me than you.
Ooh, ooh, ooh, there's more to me than you.

There's more to me than you.
