Innocent little girl

New to a wide world

Will I grow to be what I want to be

Armed with my mother's words

Keep them safe in my pocket

My shield from harm

My soul in her arms

They tell me I'm only

One voice in a million

Tell me I'm not good enough

To give it a try

And each time I feel close to heaven

They slam the door in my face

I'll give it all

Fight for every breath

To be true to myself

Can I find simple thing to define

Who am I

Who am I

Here I am after all

Worked my fingers to the bone

Oh how these long years

Have brought me to tears

And now I look forward

Humble here the same girl

Plant my flag at the top

And you said I would not

I know I'm only one voice in a million

But one voice is all that I need

I gave it all fought for every breath

To be true to myself

Cleared my name

Found the reason I am

Who I was

Who I am

Don't show me my flaws

Imperfections are obvious

Don't need to tell me

I'm not that dumb

So I'll be myself in control

Of my dreams

How could you dare tell me

I'm doing it wrong

I'll give it all

Fight for every step

To be true to myself

Now I've found

Why you tried to destroy

To destroy who I am

Who I am
