I am what I am
Im super fortified hundred proof girl with a band
And Im a velveteen rabbit made of steel with a plan
Im not your seventeen girl but its not worth a can
Of worms, Im not your beauty queen
Im not the girl in glamour magazine
Im not running for miss popularity
Cause I wont be what I cant be
CHORUS:
But I want to be real
I want to find out who I am
And I will find my way to heal
And I will find my voice my stand
I am who I am
I am woman hear me roar and I am salt, I am sand
A million starfish stranded, landed, Ill throw back what I can
Ill save the planet, change the world, Ill make a one girl stand
Ive got better things to do than be shown off
I wont be the doll you lock up in a box
Dont expect me to be anything Im not
Cause I wont be what I cant be
CHORUS
Approval is your sword
Popularity your crown
But Im not one of your subjects, you cant bring me down
You say I lose your approval if Im not cool like you
Well, heres a newsflash for you - Ive got nothing to lose
Your laughter is hallow because I dont care
You look down on me, but Im not there
Ive got nothing to prove and nothing to lose
Nothing to prove and nothing to lose
CHORUS
And if I never find a place that I can call my own
I will have tried I willve been free
Ill be alive as long as Im still trying to be me
As long as Im still trying to be me
