They underestimated me... But they don't know me, For if they did, they wouldn't have done it. They locked me up, They didn't think I was capable, But they never saw what I'm capable of, They never let me be free to show what I can do. I free myself so I can shine, And they can't hold me back anymore. Did you think you could control me? I'm too wild for that. Did you think you could hold me back? Baby, I'm much stronger than you. Look how far I can go, If you don't hold me back, I can rise. I don't depend on you, I don't depend on anyone. The power is all mine, And you can't hold me back anymore. (I have the power I always wanted) Did you think I'd stay? Did you think you wouldn't let me go? Baby, I'm too wild, You don't know me when I'm free. But now you'll see me shine. I'll shine like gold, And no one will stop me. Look how far I can go, If you don't hold me back, I can rise. I don't depend on you, I don't depend on anyone. The power is all mine, And you can't hold me back anymore. (I have the power I always wanted) Did you doubt I’d ever make it here? That’s okay—I did too. Did you doubt this light was meant to be mine? Of that, I never had a doubt. Now I’ll shine like gold. I’ll turn to gold, And no one will be able to deny That the power is mine. Did you think I'd stay? Did you think you wouldn't let me go? Baby, I'm too wild, You don't know me when I'm free. But now you'll see me shine. I'll shine like gold, And no one will stop me. I don't depend on you, I don't depend on anyone. The power is all mine, And you can't hold me back anymore. (I have the power I always wanted)
