Jordin Sparks – Overcome lyrics

I thought that hiding all my feelings
Was protecting my heart
So I never built anything
High enough to fall apart
And what I was looking for
Didn't know where to start
I can't believe this is happening

The day I met you
I said welcome to the rest of my life
Cause you created a new me
And all the emptiness died
I was afraid to give love another try
Now I can't believe this is happening

I know that this might get me in trouble
But it's time I let my defenses down
Cause I am no longer afraid of a struggle
Oh I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh I've overcome
I've overcome

Guess I'm addicted to happiness
I just can't get enough
So I decided to give up pride and
Surrender my trust
I've got no choice left
But to believe in us
And finally this is happening

I know that this might get me in trouble
But it's time I let my defenses down
Cause I am no longer afraid of a struggle
Oh I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh I've overcome
I've overcome

I finally let myself go
I let all my guards down
Baby, I'm yours now
You're in control
I took the chains off my soul
And now I'm in love

I know that this might get me in trouble
But it's time I let my defenses down
Cause I am no longer afraid of a struggle
Oh I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh I've overcome
I've overcome

I don't care anymore
I've overcome
Oh I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
I've overcome
Oh oh oh oh overcome
Oh I've overcome
I've overcome
