Britney Jean Spears (born December 2, 1981) is an American singer and actress. Born in McComb, Mississippi, and raised in Kentwood, Louisiana, she performed acting roles in stage productions and television shows as a child before signing with Jive Records in 1997. Spears's first and second studio albums, ...Baby One More Time (1999) and Oops!... I Did It Again (2000), became international successes, with the former becoming the best-selling album by a teenage solo artist. Title tracks "...Baby One More Time" and "Oops!... I Did It Again" broke international sales records. In 2001, Spears released her self-titled third studio album, Britney, and played the starring role in the film Crossroads (2002). She assumed creative control of her fourth studio album, In the Zone (2003), which yielded the worldwide success of the "Toxic" single.
In 2007, Spears's much-publicized personal issues sent her career into hiatus. Her fifth studio album, Blackout, was released later that year, and spawned hits such as "Gimme More" and "Piece of Me". Her erratic behavior and hospitalizations continued through the following year, at which point she was placed under a still ongoing conservatorship. Spears's sixth studio album, Circus (2008), included global chart-topping lead single "Womanizer". Its supporting tour The Circus Starring Britney Spears was one of the highest-grossing global concert tours in 2009.
On the edge of something big and brave
Every breath is another step of faith
Part of me still likes the ground where I feel safe and sound
But You push me, pull me and I finally let go
Falling, falling
To the heart of someone
So much stronger
Falling into love
Ever closer, closer to the truth
One by one my fears fade into blue
Wherever You are taking me is where I need to be
And You have Your reasons, who am I to say no
Falling, falling
To the heart of someone
So much stronger
Falling into love
I waver, You're steady
I falter, You never fail
You fight for me
I surrender to You, to You
Falling, falling
To the heart of someone
So much stronger
