I've been living by their rules
Dancing to their tune
Got the world in my face
Trying to make me choose
They say I'm out of line
A little too bold
But I'm not one
For the silence
I can't be sold
I'm done hiding
In the shadows
Done playing small
I'm breaking free
From their lines
Gonna stand tall
They built a cage
And tried to lock me in
But they didn't know
I'm born to win
No chains on me
No puppet strings
I'm gonna rise
I'm gonna sing
All these voices in my head
Telling me who to be
But I'm breaking out
I'm running free
No chains on me
No more disguise
I'm breathing fire
Watch me rise
In a world that says
\"stay down low\"
I'll be the one
They'll never control
I used to worry what they'd say
Try to fit their mold
But the more I shrink
The more I grow cold
Now I'm walking to my beat
My heart's own sound
Taking back my life
I'm lost but found
They can judge, they can try
They can cast their doubt
But they can't hold back
What I'm about
Their words might sting
But they won't last
I'm building my future
Leave 'em in the past
No chains on me
No puppet strings
I'm gonna rise
I'm gonna sing
All these voices in my head
Telling me who to be
But I'm breaking out
I'm running free
No chains on me
No more disguise
I'm breathing fire
Watch me rise
In a world that says
\"stay down low\"
I'll be the one
They'll never control
This world's been trying
To keep me on my knees
But I've found strength
In the scars and the pleas
I've been the whisper
Now I'll be the roar
I'm rewriting the rules
They wrote before
No chains on me
No puppet strings
I'm gonna rise
I'm gonna sing
All these voices in my head
Telling me who to be
But I'm breaking out
I'm running free
No chains on me
No more disguise
I'm breathing fire
Watch me rise
In a world that says
\"stay down low\"
I'll be the one they'
Ll never control
So let them talk
Let them stare
I'm out here breathing rebel air
No chains on me
I'm finally free
I'm the fire they never thought I'd be
