[Verse 1: Beyoncé]
It's too far
It's too fast
It's too quick
It won't last
It's not right
But it's not wrong
There's no time
Move along

[Chorus: Beyoncé]
But I've come much too far
And I know what's in my heart
And I know what I feel
I can tell when it is real
My time has come

[Verse 2: Beyoncé]
It's okay
Be afraid
It's alright (It's alright)
You just take that fear
Turn it in
To your strength
It's called life (It's called life)
And that's why we're here

[Chorus: Beyoncé]
Now I've come much too far
And I know what's in my heart
And I know what I feel
And this time I know it's real
My time has come

[Chorus 2: Beyonce & Destiny's Child]
And like the road below me
I know I'll touch the sky above
A million footprints around me
Tell me it can be done
My time has come
Now I've come much too far
And I know what's in my heart
(I know what's in my heart, baby)
'Cause I know what I feel
And this time I know it's real
My time has come

[Bridge: Beyoncé]
It's so close
It's been a long time comin'
It's here and now
And I know it'll last
It's so right
That it can't be wrong
Now's the time (Now's the time)
For me to be strong

[Chorus: Beyoncé]
Now I've come much too far
And I know what's in my heart
And I know what I feel
And this time I know it's real
My time has come
Now I've come much too far
And I know what's in my heart
(I know what's in my heart, baby)
And I know what I feel
And this time I know it's real
My time has come

[Outro: Destiny's Child & (Beyoncé)]
I know that I just gotta keep movin' on ('Cause I know)
I know what's in my heart (Know)
My time has come
I know that I just gotta keep movin' on ('Cause I know)
I know what's in my heart
(I can feel it I can feel it) My time has come
I know that I just gotta keep movin' on (Oh-oh, 'cause I know)
I know what's in my heart
(I can feel, I can feel it) My time has come
I know that I just gotta keep movin' on (Keep movin' on)
I know what's in my heart
I can feel it, my time has come
I know that I just gotta keep movin' on (I know, I know)
I know what's in my heart
I can feel it, my time has come (I can feel it)
I know that I just gotta keep movin' on (I can feel it)
I know what's in my heart (My time has come)
I can feel it my time has come
