Lyrics

You said I'd never be a leader
 You said I'd never wear a crown
 If I wanted to be someone
 I should learn to settle down
 (You should know better) I tell myself
 (You'll never go further) I warn myself
 (You'll never be better) You don't know me that well
 I made it to the end
 I nearly paid the cost
 I lost a lot of friends
 I sacrificed a lot
 I'd do it all again
 'Cause I made it to the top
 But I can't keep doubting myself anymore
 No, no
 I can't keep doubting myself, no
 Now you're looking at a leader
 Now you're staring at a queen
 You said I'll never be someone
 But now I'm pulling all the strings
 (You should know better) Won't let me back down
 (You'll never go further) Can't turn me around
 (You'll never be better) So no-one's stopping me now
 I made it to the end
 I nearly paid the cost
 I lost a lot of friends
 I sacrificed a lot
 I'd do it all again
 'Cause I made it to the top
 I can't keep doubting myself anymore
 No, no, no, no, no, no
 Oh, no,no
 Oh, no
 You think you know
 But you don't know the half
 You think you beat me down
 But I'll have the last laugh
 I'll keep getting up
 'Cause that's what I'm gonna do, yeah
 I'm gonna be the best me
 I'm sorry if it kills you
 I made it to the end
 I nearly paid the cost
 I lost a lot of friends
 I sacrificed a lot
 I'd do it all again
 'Cause I made it to the top
 But I can't keep doubting myself anymore
 No, oh no, no, no, no
 I can't keep doubting myself, no
 ♪
 I remember holding her breakthrough album
 Holding in my hands, in my car, listening to it on repeat
 To me, she was this untouchable goddess
 And, and when I met her, I really really wasn't expecting her
 To just be... like me, I feel like we're so similar
