Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've lived my life like a masochist, hearing my father say
Told you so, told you so
Why can't you be like the other girls?
I said oh no that's not me and I don't think that'll ever be
[Verse 2]
Thought I belonged to a different tribe
Walking along never satisfied, satisfied
Tried to fit in but it wasn't me
I said oh no, I want more, that's not what I'm looking for
[Verse 3]
So I took the road less traveled by and I barely made it out alive
Through the darkness somehow I survived
Tough love, I knew it from the start
Deep down in the depths of my rebel heart
[Verse 4]
I've spent some time as a narcissist, hearing the others say
Look at you look at you
Trying to be so provocative
I said oh yeah, that was me, all the things I did just to be seen
[Verse 5]
Outgrown my past and I've shed my skin
Letting it go and I'll start again, start again
Never look back, it's a waste of time
I said oh yeah, this is me and I'm right here where I wanna be
I said, oh yeah, this is me, right where I'm supposed to be
[Verse 6]
So I took the road less traveled by and I barely made it out alive
Through the darkness somehow I survived
Tough love, I knew it from the start
Deep down in my rebel heart
[Verse 7]
So I took the road less traveled by and I barely made it out alive
Through the darkness somehow I survived
Tough love, I knew it from the start
Deep down in the depths of my rebel heart
[Verse 8]
Of my rebel heart
