This Time Last Year

This time last year
Right around the holidays
There were messes in my mind
I was learning all the harder ways

Living it down, and drinking a lot
But hitting the town didn't hit the spot
But, oh, how the tides change in 365 days

I gave hell a piece of my mind
It gave me a hit to my pride
I came out on the other side
The devil said hi
But, baby, baby, look at me now
I lost a couple good friends
Untied a couple loose ends
It's all part of shedding old skin
And starting again
But, baby, baby, look at me now
But, baby, baby, look at me now

It's kinda got me thinkin' 'bout
This time last year
The heartbreak was undeniable
But day by day I
Became unrecognizable

Making my round, shooting my shot
Standing my ground, pissing people off
Oh, how the ride's changed in 365 days

I gave hell a piece of my mind
It gave me a hit to my pride
I came out on the other side
The devil said hi
But, baby, baby, look at me now
I lost a couple good friends
Untied a couple loose ends
It's all part of shedding old skin
And starting again
But, baby, baby, look at me now

People thinking that I've changed
They used to be my biggest fear
My biggest fear (this time last year)
Thank God that I changed (thank God that I changed)
This time last year (this time last year)
This time last year (this time last year)

I gave hell a piece of my mind
It gave me a hit to my pride
I came out on the other side
The devil said hi
But, baby, baby, look at me now
I lost a couple good friends
Untied a couple loose ends
It's all part of shedding old skin
And starting again
But, baby, baby, look at me now

This time last year
Baby, baby, look at me now
This time last year
Baby, baby, look at me now
Baby, baby, look at me now
It's gonna be okay
You'll live to see the day
When you're gonna say
Baby, baby, look at me now
