Brand New Me
It's been a while
I'm not who I was before
You look surprised
Your words don't burn me anymore
Been meanin' to tell ya
But I guess it's clear to see
Don't be mad
It's just a brand new kinda me
Can't be bad
I found a brand new kinda free
Careful with your ego
He's the one that we should blame
Had to grab my heart back
God knows something had to change
I thought that you'd be happy
I found the one thing I need
Why you mad?
It's just a brand new kinda me
Ooh, it took a long long time to get here
It took a brave, brave girl to try
It took one too many excuses
One too many lies
Don't be surprised, don't be surprised
If I talk a little louder
If I speak up when you're wrong
If I walk a little taller
I've been under you too long
If you notice that I'm different
Don't take it personally
Don't be mad
It's just a brand new kinda me
That ain't bad
I found a brand new kinda free
Ooh, it took a long, long road to get here
It took a brave, brave girl to try
I've taken one too many excuses
One to many lies
Don't be surprised, oh, said, you look surprised
Hey, if you were a friend
You'd wanna get to know me again
If you were worth the while
You'd be happy to see me smile
I'm not expecting sorry
I'm too busy finding myself
I got this
I found me, I found me, yeah
I don't need your opinion
I'm not waiting for your okay
I'll never be perfect,
But at least now I'm brave
I know my heart is open
I can finally breathe
Don't be mad
It's just a brand new kinda free
That ain't bad
I found a brand new kinda me
Don't be mad
It's just a brand new time for me
I'm not who I was before
You look surprised
Your words don't burn me anymore
Been meanin' to tell ya
But I guess it's clear to see
Don't be mad
It's just a brand new kinda me
Can't be bad
I found a brand new kinda free
Careful with your ego
He's the one that we should blame
Had to grab my heart back
God knows something had to change
I thought that you'd be happy
I found the one thing I need
Why you mad?
It's just a brand new kinda me
Ooh, it took a long long time to get here
It took a brave, brave girl to try
It took one too many excuses
One too many lies
Don't be surprised, don't be surprised
If I talk a little louder
If I speak up when you're wrong
If I walk a little taller
I've been under you too long
If you notice that I'm different
Don't take it personally
Don't be mad
It's just a brand new kinda me
That ain't bad

Ooh, it took a long, long road to get here
It took a brave, brave girl to try

Girl On Fire
She's just a girl, and she's on fire
Hotter than a fantasy, lonely like a highway
She's living in a world and it's on fire
Filled with catastrophe but she knows she can fly away
Ooh-oh, she got both feet on the ground
And she's burning it down
Ooh-oh, she got her head in the clouds
And she's not backing down
This girl is on fire
This girl is on fire
She's walking on fire
This girl is on fire
Looks like a girl but she's a flame
So bright, she can burn your eyes
Better look the other way
You can try but you'll never forget her name
She's on top of the world
Hottest of the hottest girls say
Ooh-oh, we got our feet on the ground
And we're burning it down
Ooh-oh, got our head in the clouds
And we're not coming down
This girl is on fire (fire, fire)
This girl is on fire
She's walking on fire (fire, fire)
This girl is on fire (ooh)
Everybody stares as she goes by
'Cause they can see the flame that's in her eyes
Watch her as she's lighting up the night
Nobody knows that she's a lonely girl
And it's a lonely world
But she gon' let it burn, baby, burn, baby
This girl is on fire (fire, fire)
This girl is on fire
She's walking on fire (fire, fire)
This girl is on fire
Ooh-oh, ooh-oh, ooh-oh
Ooh-oh, ooh-oh, ooh, ooh-oh
Ooh-oh, ooh-oh, ooh, ooh
Ooh-oh, ooh-oh, ooh, oh
She's just a girl but she's on fire
Hotter than a fantasy, lonely like a highway
She's living in a world and it's on fire
Filled with catastrophe but she knows she can fly away
Ooh-oh, she got both feet on the ground
And she's burning it down
Ooh-oh, she got her head in the clouds
And she's not backing down
This girl is on fire
This girl is on fire
She's walking on fire
This girl is on fire
Looks like a girl but she's a flame
So bright, she can burn your eyes
Better look the other way
You can try but you'll never forget her name
She's on top of the world

Ooh-oh, we got our feet on the ground

Ooh-oh, got our head in the clouds

Tears Always Win
Check it out
It feels kinda crazy
These covers
May keep me warm at night
But they can't take your place
Cause they never gonna hold me tight
And these pillows
May let me rest my head
But they can't say good night
And tuck me in before I go to bed
Say now baby girl you're better off
That's what I'm telling myself (over and over)
But I'm lying to myself
Cause I know I don't want nobody else
[Chorus:]
These lips are missing you
Cause these lips ain't kissing you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
These arms are wanting you
Cause these arms ain't holding you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
These candles
Light up my room at night
But they can't light the room they way you did
When you walked inside, oh baby
If these walls could sing
About everything they've witnessed
Oh it'd be a sad sad song
And it'll probably sound something like this
Say now baby girl you're better off
That's what I'm telling myself (over and over)
But I'm lying to myself
Cause I know I don't want nobody else
[Chorus:]
These lips are missing you
Cause these lips ain't kissing you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
These arms are wanting you
Cause these arms ain't holding you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
Tell me when the hell this loneliness is gonna be over
When everything in this room reminds me of you
Everytime I think, I'm getting closer
Cause tears drown me out, once again I lose
These lips are missing you
These lips ain't kissing you
I put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
These arms are wanting you
These arms ain't holding you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
Crying like oh oh...
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
Crying like oh oh...
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
It feels kinda crazy
These covers
May keep me warm at night
But they can't take your place
Cause they never gonna hold me tight
And these pillows
May let me rest my head
But they can't say good night

Not Even The King
Money
Some people so poor, all that they've got is money
Oh, and diamonds
Some people waste their life counting their thousands
I don't care what they're offering
How much gold they bring
They can't afford what we've had
Not even the king
They can't afford what we've got
Not even the king
Oh, castles
Some people so lonely, what good is a castle
Surrounded by people?
But ain't got a friend that's not on the payroll
Oh, and I don't care what they bring
They can have everything
They can't afford what we've got
Not even the king
They can't afford what we've got
Not even the king
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Came charging to get what we got
They offered the crown and they offered the throne
But I already got all that I want
All the king's horses and all the king's men
They came marching through
They offered the world just to have what we got
But I found the world in you
I found the world in you
So darling, listen
Your arms around me worth more than a kingdom
Yeah, believe that
The trust that we feel the kings never felt that
Yeah, this is the song we sing
We don't need anything
They can't afford this
This is priceless
Can't afford what we've got
Not even the king
Can't afford what we've got
Not even the king
Some people so poor, all that they've got is money
Oh, and diamonds
Some people waste their life counting their thousands
I don't care what they're offering
How much gold they bring
They can't afford what we've had
Not even the king
They can't afford what we've got
Not even the king

Yeah, this is the song we sing
We don't need anything
They can't afford this
This is priceless
Can't afford what we've got
Not even the king
Can't afford what we've got
Not even the king

Thats When I Knew
Right there
In the middle of a conversation
Wasn't anything special you said
It was just there
Right then
I didn't have time even to overthink it
I loved you and all of a sudden
I was all in
It's like my knees are all weak and the butterflies
They were dancing and taking all of my air
From that moment on it was very clear
That's when I knew I fell in love
That's when I knew you were the one
That's when I knew you stole my heart away from me
That's when I knew that I was sunk
That was the moment that I knew I was in love
That's when I knew
That's when I knew
That's when I knew
That day
I didn't know we were going where the night would end
I didn't know there was something brewing and if it was
I didn't know how much I care
That touch
When you barely held my hand I was overcome
With feelings I don't understand
Not in a million years I didn't think that we'd be here
It's like my knees are all weak and the butterflies
Got me dancing and taking all of my air
From that moment on it was very very very very clear
[Chorus:]
That's when I knew I fell in love
That's when I knew you were the one
That's when I knew you stole my heart away from me
That's when I knew that I was sunk
That was the moment that I knew I was in love
That's when I knew
That's when I knew
That's when I knew
Don't you know it?
Hey
That's when I knew Baby
That's when I knew
That's when I knew
Baby
You know (that?) you know
You know what you feel
And there's no denying
That love is for real
There is nothing to do
Just let it in
Gotta surrender
[Chorus:]
That's when I knew I fell in love
That's when I knew you were the one
That's when I knew you stole my heart away from me
That's when I knew that I was sunk
That was the moment that I knew I fell in love
(That's when I knew)
(That's when I knew)
(That's when I knew)
That's when I knew with that minute
That's when I knew it was that beautiful
Sometimes you get it, sometimes you get it
That's when I knew it baby
Yeah, that's when I knew
That's when I knew we fell in love
In the middle of a conversation
Wasn't anything special you said
It was just there

One Thing
What, where am I?
What's life like on a train
Nobody there knows your name
As your decision changed
Do you wish that I came
I thought you'd pick me up from work
I waited for your truck for half hour
I know you said you gonna
But I never thought you'd leave
[Chorus:]
This one thing that was made for us
Chasing us, saving us
I take one thing over everything
I take that thing over anybody
Square face and puppy eyes
Found out they never lied
Your old man lived in the sky
Left your house with a yard
But you went away a different try
Found a place that's your size
Too good to finish life here with me
I couldn't get you to say
Why you wouldn't let me come
What should be simple just ain't
And it shouldn't hurt like it does
[Chorus:]
This one thing is made for us
Won't stay with us, it ain't saving us
But I'll take one thing over everything
I'll take that thing over anybody
Baby, hold me, don't pick me up
I need a compliment
Just a touch from a friend
I need a gentle word
I need your company
I'll keep
[Chorus:]
One thing that was made for us
Chasing us, saving us
I take one thing over anything
I take that thing over anybody
I take one thing over everything
I take that thing over anybody
Oh, oh, anything
Oh, oh, take one thing
What's life like on a train
Nobody there knows your name
As your decision changed
Do you wish that I came
I thought you'd pick me up from work
I waited for your truck for half hour
I know you said you gonna

101
You used to the sound of a heart that's breaking
I know it don't phase you anymore
You're the king of the game that you're playing
I know you've played it a hundred times before
You fill your bedroom up with trophies
Then you get a kick out of closing the door
Got all the words to keep on hoping
I know you've said them a hundred times before
Then there's me, all fox for your gun
Then there's me, just love me for fun
Then there's me, no use in pretending
Oh there's me, a 101
I might as well stand in front of a bullet
Close my eyes and kick the chair to the floor
It's like a speeding train that is coming,
I know you've crashed it 100 times before
Then there's me, all fox for your gun
Then there's me, just love me for fun
Uh there's me, no, no use in pretending
Oh there's me, a 101
Everybody says I gotta be crazy
That I deserve everything that I get
But I got a feeling
That makes me wanna ignore all that you've done a 100 times before
Cause then there's me, could I be the one
And baby there's me, to make you undone
Uh darling there's me, no use, no use in pretending
Oh there's me, a 101
Me, 101
So I gotta be, I gotta be, I gotta be a 101
Maybe it's time, maybe it's me
Maybe I could be, Maybe pretend
I gotta be, I gotta be 101,
Yeah baby
I know it don't phase you anymore
You're the king of the game that you're playing
I know you've played it a hundred times before
You fill your bedroom up with trophies
Then you get a kick out of closing the door
Got all the words to keep on hoping
I know you've said them a hundred times before
Then there's me, all fox for your gun
Then there's me, just love me for fun
Then there's me, no use in pretending
Oh there's me, a 101
I might as well stand in front of a bullet
Close my eyes and kick the chair to the floor
It's like a speeding train that is coming,
I know you've crashed it 100 times before
Then there's me, all fox for your gun
Then there's me, just love me for fun
Uh there's me, no, no use in pretending
Oh there's me, a 101
Everybody says I gotta be crazy
That I deserve everything that I get
But I got a feeling
That makes me wanna ignore all that you've done a 100 times before
Cause then there's me, could I be the one
And baby there's me, to make you undone
Uh darling there's me, no use, no use in pretending
Oh there's me, a 101
Me, 101
So I gotta be, I gotta be, I gotta be a 101
Maybe it's time, maybe it's me
Maybe I could be, Maybe pretend
I gotta be, I gotta be 101,
Yeah baby

Girl on Fire is the fifth studio album by American singer and songwriter Alicia Keys. It was released on November 22, 2012, being Keys' first release with RCA Records following Sony Music Entertainment's decision to close J Records during a company reshuffle. The album is an R&B album with elements of different musical styles, including rock, electro, reggae and hip hop. It features a largely minimalist production, includes piano-driven songs and balances traditional R&B with atypical chords and melodic changes.
Upon its release, Girl on Fire received generally positive reviews from music critics. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 with 159,000 copies sold in its first week. It produced five singles-"Girl on Fire" (which peaked at number two on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and number 11 on the US Billboard Hot 100), "Brand New Me", "New Day", "Fire We Make" (featuring Maxwell), and "Tears Always Win". To further promote the album, Keys embarked on her fifth worldwide concert tour, titled Set the World on Fire Tour, which commenced in March 2013 and ended in December. At the 56th Annual Grammy Awards, Girl on Fire won Best R&B Album, making Keys the most awarded artist in this category, with three wins.
