I had a roof overhead Had shoes on my feet Sure I was fed, but no-one was there When I was in need, yeah
So who am I now? Who do you want me to be? I can forgive you, but I won't relive you I ain't the same scared kid I used to be
I'm gonna live I'm gonna survive Don't want the world to pass me by I'm gonna dream I ain't gonna die Thinking my life was just a lie I wanna be loved I wanna be loved
I found a picture Our so-called family tree, yeah I broke all the branches, looking for answers Don't you know that ain't how it's supposed to be
I'm gonna live I'm gonna survive Don't want the world to pass me by I'm gonna dream I ain't gonna die Thinking my life was just a lie I wanna give I'm ready to try Willing to lay it on the line I wanna be loved I wanna be
I ain't gonna cry I don't wanna scream But I got so much left unsaid inside of me
I'm gonna live I'm gonna survive Don't want the world to pass me by I'm gonna dream I ain't gonna die Thinking my life was just a lie I wanna give I'm ready to try Willing to lay it on the line I wanna be loved I wanna be loved I just wanna be loved I wanna be loved
