So you want me to be calm
To be kind
Send in a heated house
Like a child
Want me to work hard
And that right from the start
Always place first
Making it worse
Your expectations
Are trying my patience
I walk my own path
Want me to play with puppets
Don't complain
Act like your princess
If I want to stay
'Cause someday you'll see
What I got inside of me
Don't take me for granted
I owe you nothing, my dear
So you want me to be strong
Face the pain
I should get along
Sink or swim in the strain
Not be too crazy
Neither be lazy
The little girl with dreams
Just became a lady
And your expectation
Just feels like dictation
I reset and restart
Want me to play with puppets
Don't complain
Act like your princess
If I want to stay
But someday you'll see
What I got inside of me
Don't take me for granted
Want me to play with puppets
Don't complain
Act like your princess
I go insane
'Cause someday you'll see
What I got inside of me
Don't take me for granted
I owe you nothing, my dear
I don't need your expectations
Hard enough to meet my own
I try to walk in flooded land
But sorry, all I ever can
Is being my own man
Want me to play with puppets
Don't complain
Playing your mind games
I go insane
But someday you'll see
What I got inside of me
Don't take me for granted
'Cause I don't play with puppets
I break free
Not your little princess
Now I'm the queen and
Your eyes can see
What I got inside of me
Don't take me for granted
I owe you nothing, my dear
