They told me I could never be
What I wanted to be
They told me I had to be
What I never wanted to be
They told me not to follow my dreams
Because I would never succeed
They told me my aspirations were mistakes
That my imagination was too fake
They told me I could never be
What I wanted to be
Because I'm not that person
Because I could never achieve
Because I didn't have the courage to walk in anywhere I wanted to and do what I wanted to do
They told me I couldn't walk among THEM
They told me that I couldn't walk because I am a WOMAN
They told me I couldn't walk because I am ME
And I told them
They were absolutely right
I can't walk
I couldn't walk
I never walked
I flew
