I see a thousand directions
As they pull and push me
To be the kind of person
I'm supposed to be
But oh, I just wanna be free

Laden with these burdens
I never wanted to bare
Shove me into this future
I don't want to be there
I just wanna be free

Pushed way past my limits
But they don't know what that means
And I'm so ready to fly solo
But they took away my wings
I just wanna be free

I just want the chance so
Let me go so I can be me
Let go so I can the person
That I've chosen to be
Oh, I just wanna be free
