My Once Upon a Time (From "Descendants 3"/Soundtrack Version) - Dove Cameron

Lyrics by：David Goldsmith/John Kavanaugh

Composed by：David Goldsmith/John Kavanaugh

Here you are alone and you deserve it

Your friends have turned to stone

And that's on you

You had a 'cause to serve but did you serve it

Or did you see yourself in a way that wasn't true

This is not your father's fairytale

And no it's not your mother's fault you fail

So when your story comes to light

Make sure the story that they write

Goes once upon a time a girl tried harder

Once upon a time she tried again

Once upon a braver choice

She took a risk

She used her voice

And that will be my once upon a time

This time

Why tell all those lies

You feel unworthy

Like there isn't solid ground for you to stand

But a stack of lies is not a firm foundation

You cannot build a castle on a mountain made of sand

This is not your mother's dark desire

And no it's not your father's hair on fire

Turns out it's you who's not awake

So if there's change you wanna make

Take once upon a time she fought a dragon

Once upon a time that beast was me

Once upon a misspent youth

She faced herself

She spoke the truth

That's how I see my once upon a time

This time

Life is not a storybook but life unfolds in chapters

Turn the page and start to make amends

There's no pre-written guarantee of happily ever after

Step into your greatness before your story ends

So when your story ends

They'll say once upon a time a girl flew higher

Once upon a time she made things right

Once upon a tie that binds

She changed her heart

To change their minds

That's got to be my once upon a time

This once upon a time

I'll finally see my once upon a time

This time
