They said I’d never be a leader
They said I’d never wear a crown
If I wanted to be someone
I should learn to settle down
You should know better (I tell myself)
You’ll never go further (I warned myself)
You’ll never be better (you don’t know me that well)
I made it to the end
I nearly paid the cost
I lost a lot of friends
I sacrificed a lot
I’d do it all again
Cuz I made it to the top
But I can’t keep doubting myself anymore
Now you’re looking at a leader
Now you’re staring at a queen
You’d said I’d never be someone
But I’m pulling those strings
You should know better (you won’t make me back down)
You’ll never go further (can’t turn me around)
You’ll never be better (so no stopping me now)
I made it to the end
I nearly paid the cost
I lost a lot of friends
I sacrificed a lot
I’d do it all again
Cuz I made it to the top
But I can’t keep doubting myself anymore
You think you know, but you don’t know the half
You think you beat me down, but I’ll have the last laugh
I’ll keep getting up, cuz that’s what I want to do
I’m gonna be the best me, I’m sorry if it kills you
