Taylor Swift officially owns all of her music.

The "Fortnight" singer made the surprise announcement on Friday (May 30) in a heartfelt letter to fans posted on her website, writing that her "mind is just a slideshow" off all the dreams and longing she has felt throughout the years that have finally led to this point.

"All the times I was thiiiiiiiiiiiis close, reaching out for it, only for it to fall through. I almost stopped thinking it could ever happen after 20 years of having the carrot dangled and then yanked away. But that's all in the past now," she said. "I've been bursting into tears of joy at random intervals ever since I found out that this is really happening. I really get to say the words: All of the music I've ever made... now belongs... to me."

Swift noted that along with the masters to her first six albums, she owns all of the music videos, concerts films, album art, photography and all of her unreleased songs.

"The memories. The magic. The madness. Every single era. My entire life's work," she said. "To say this is my greatest dream come true is actually being pretty reserved about it."

In addition to sharing gratitude to Shamrock Capital for being "honest, fair, and respectful" and for "being the first people to ever offer this to me," the Midnights musician also thanked fans for supporting her on her journey of re-recording her older albums — including Fearless, Speak Now, Red and 1989 — as it helped her buy back the original recordings.

"The passionate support you showed these albums and the success story you turned The Eras Tour into is why I was able to buy back my music. I can't thank you enough for helping to reunite me with this art that I have dedicated my life to, but have never owned until now," she said. "All I've ever wanted was the opportunity to work hard enough to be able to one day purchase my music outright with no strings attached, no partnership, with full autonomy."
