It started when I was a child
My goal was just to make you smile
One day some tears came down my face
You told me I was a disgrace
And don't you know that I
Have cut the chains you used to hold
And don't you know that I
Now hold the reins
I took control
I'm a fighter
I'm inspired
To grow into who I want to be
I'll climb higher
Through the rooftops
Like a dove who has finally been set free
No, I won't stop
Until I'm finally fine with being me
You used to make me feel so wrong
I didn't know if I belonged
I never worked hard enough, no
No, I didn't know if I belonged

I never was strong enough
To grin through the pain
That I felt so deeply
And don't you know that I
Have cut the chains you used to hold
And don't you know that I
Now hold the reins
I took control
I'm a fighter
I'm inspired
To grow into who I want to be
I'll climb higher
Through the rooftops
Like a dove who has finally been set free
No, I won't stop
Until I'm finally fine with being me
I'm not a joke
If you think that you're funny
I've learned
I can control
My response to negativity
And soon you'll learn that I
Have cut the chains you used to hold
And soon you'll learn that I
Now hold the reins
I took control
I'm a fighter
I'm inspired
To grow into who I want to be
I'll climb higher
Through the rooftops
Like a dove who has finally been set free
No, I won't stop
Until I'm finally fine with being me
I'm a fighter
I'm
I'm a fighter
I'm a fighter
