Just because I'm a princess does not mean I need a knight For in the depths of my being, I am already one. To not be lost, I have no need for the moon and sun's light For my heart shines brightly, all doubts crushed and gone.

I am my own strength
Just because I'm a princess does not mean I need a knight For in the depths of my being, I am already one. To not be lost, I have no need for the moon and sun's light For my heart shines brightly, all doubts crushed and gone.
Fairy tales often tell us there is a prince charming just waiting to swept us off our feet; a knight to fight our battles for us; a fairy god mother to grant us every wish. For so long, I believed this to be true. Only in the latter part that I've realized, that this belief is twisted. It sways us from the real fact that the strength to battle any hardships comes from within. We may get support from outside, but In the end, all left is ourselves to protect ourselves. As we were born alone, we must learn to fight alone too, occasionally.
