I am from the tiny town,
Where I learned to tough it out.
WhereI kicked the dirt an' my dreams around,
To conquer the whole world.
My uncle slipped me fifty bucks:
Some rolled their eyes an' wished me luck.
Yeah, I spent the first night in the cab of my truck,
An' I am still that girl.

I like a challenge an' I like to fly.
I'm not always perfect; I'm not always right.
When I go to weddings, it always makes me cry.
My heart is fragile an' I can be hurt,
An' I can crumble inside at the drop of a word.
But I can jump off a limb into a river change:
I'm taking back my brave.

I kinda lost it for a while,
I had to force myself to smile.
An' I quit going that extra mile.:
Abandoned my belief.
An' I spent hours on the phone,
Crawlin' back to my comfort zone.
Then I woke up one day; said I'm not runnin' home:
It's just not like me.

'Cause I like a challenge an' I like to fly.
I'm not always perfect; I'm not always right.
New born babies always makes me cry.
My heart is fragile an' I can be hurt,
An' I can crumble inside at the drop of a word.
But I can jump off a limb into a river change:
I'm taking back my brave.

I'm my Momma's only girl;
The child in a mess.
(I've always been that way.)
I been pushin' the limits,
Since I was little, yeah, yeah.

Oh, my heart is fragile an' I can be hurt,
An' I can crumble inside at the drop of a word.
But I can jump off a limb into a river change:
I'm taking back my brave;
I'm taking back my brave, yeah.
Takin' it back, back.

I'm takin' it back, back.
I'm taking back my brave, yeah.
Takin' it back, back.
