Spent the year tryin' to get you to love me (get you to love me)
Put your needs high up above me
All night talkin' on the telephone
Listenin' to you cryin' 'bout being alone
Spent the summer tryin' to get you to care (get you to care)
Bought new jeans and grew my hair
Called me up when you wanted me around
But when I needed you, you could never be found

So this year's gonna be about me
Never will I have another reason to doubt me
This year, this year
This year's gonna be about me
Never will I have another reason to doubt me
This year, this year

Spent the year tryin' to get your attention
All my miles just to make a connection
Runnin' around just to get to you
When I showed up, you had something to do
Met your mama and all your friends
Didn't know it was all pretend
Lifted you up, you were bringing me down
But this year's gonna turn them tables around

So this year's gonna be about me
Never will I have another reason to doubt me
This year, this year
This year's gonna be about me
Never will I have another reason to doubt me
This year, this year

(I'm loving, I'm feeling myself)
(Not worried 'bout anyone else)
(My mind, my body, my health)
(This year, this year)
(I'm turning it all around, nobody can bring me down)
(My vision, my mind, my crown)
(This year, this year)

I'm taking what's mine, I'm putting it on the line, this year
Not gonna waste no more time, I'm coming to claim my shine, this year
I threw away all your shit, I'm ready to get my fix, this year
This year's gonna hit my stride, I'm living it, my best life, this year

This year's gonna be about me
Never will I have another reason to doubt me
This year, this year
This year's gonna be about me
Never will I have another reason to doubt me
This year, this year

(I'm loving, I'm feeling myself)
(Not worried 'bout anyone else)
(My mind, my body, my health)
(This year, this year)
(I'm turning it all around, nobody can bring me down)
(My vision, my mind, my crown)
(This year, this year)
