I Am

Been talked about 
Been lied about
Been passed around constantly
When my faith is down
And I'm full of doubt
That's when I turn to G-O-D
No one tells me what to do or say
I don't need negativity
I will make mistakes
But for goodness sakes
I am just a human being

I'm holding on
Still I stay strong
Because I am
I won't be moved
There's nothing you can do
Cause I am woman, hear me roar

I've been smacked around
I have been cursed out
But you see that won't change me
I believe that there 
Is a better way
It'll raise my self esteem
Can't be broken down
Cause I'm wiser now
There is no hurting me
I'm my own person
I don't need a man
Why don't you just let me be


I'm holding on
Still I stay strong
Because I am
I won't be moved
There's nothing you can do
Cause I am woman, hear me roar

Can't control me
You don't own me
I have learned from history
That the past is gone
It's time to move on
Can't let actions repeat

I'm holding on
Still I stay strong
Because I am
I won't be moved
There's nothing you can do
Cause I am woman, hear  me roar
