Mystified by the struggle
To survive my own pride
Haunted by the demons
Of my past life
Who am I and why do I
Are questions that keep running
Through my mind
But underneath this shallow skin
A brand new me is comin' out,
Comin' out from within

Chorus:
So long
Farewell to my old self
Good-bye to the lie that I can't be someone else
Cause who I was ain't who I am
(I know that) I've been born again
Those stains of my history are gone, gone, gone
So long

Apathy, hunting me
Like some contagious disease
Hypocrisy hiding in the shadows
Of the former me
Doin' what comes naturally
I'm not who I want to be
I'm ready to, ready to be free
Repeat chorus

Na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Hey, hey, hey
So long

Na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Hey, hey, hey
So long

Repeat chorus


(Natalie Grant)

Behind the Song:
"I wrote this song as a fun, sassy reminder that in Christ, all things are made new. That’s so easy to forget, because we are often imprisoned by our past. Past mistakes and failures keep us from moving forward and we’re caught in habits we wonder if we can ever break. That’s how I felt for so long. I was sick of believing the lie and decided to say, “so long old me, hello new me.”" - Natalie Grant
