they wanted to break my back, wanted to hold me back from beeing free.
they had a part for me in society, but that wasn't me.
they gave me an early start, when they broke my heart i needed to see.
that if i wanted to be myself i couldn't be myself without me!
so here i am!
i stepped out!
to be free!
'cause with all that's left inside of me, with my back against the wall.
i can still decide what's best for me, i can still say all i want.
"now that i'm free!"
i needed to learn the truth, i had to find my own destiny.
ev'rybody would pass me by, i couldn't pacify the urge in me!
cause i was given wings to fly, that i was meant to try can't you see.
that if i wanted to be myself i couldn't be myself without me!
so here i am!
i stepped out!
to be free!
'cause with all that's left inside of me, with my back against the wall.
i can still decide what's best for me, i can still stay in control.
now that i'm free!
you didn't think that i would try...
you never knew what's on my mind...
you didn't think i'd really try to be more than this!?
i had to live in agony...
i knew you're looking down on me...
but i always knew that i would be so much more than this!
'cause with all that's left inside of me, with my back against the wall.
i can still decide what's best for me, i can still say all i want!
