Narrative:
I preformed a go around after winds changed on my first landing attempt. On my second landing attempt and upon landing I didn't sufficiently correct for the cross wind and went off the runway. I applied more than needed braking action and when the left wing lifted the left wheel off the ground and continued braking on right wheel [exacerbated] the problem causing the aircraft to turn sharp to the right.
