Standing Tall Alone

I've been strong all along, I don't need to hear your doubt

Walking alone, on this road I've paved myself

Every step I took, I didn't ask for help

You say I need you, but I know my worth

Standing tall, breaking free, since the day of my birth

No more chains, no more fuss

I've survived, I don't need your fuss

Your words, they fall on deaf ears

I've been tough for all these years

You're just a waste of time, a shadow in my light

I can do it all myself, I’ve fought through every night

No need for your hand, I’ve earned every scar

Standing on my own, I’ve come so far

Watch me rise, I don’t owe you my pride

Built my own sky, with no tears I’ve cried

Say what you will, it won't change my mind

I’m my own hero, no less, no more, just fine

So go ahead, keep talking, but I’ll stand tall and proud

I’ve proved to myself, I don’t need anyone around
