I've been the golden child
Studious and obedient
And I've been the lost cause
Wandering with the wailing wind
But on both sides of that same token
There's a power I've always owned
And it lives inside of me
I tripped and fell
Many of those rocks I placed myself
And loud was the shame
But through it all my passion will remain
Because to the life I want, I have the key
Nothing's standing in my way but me
I've tried to please
Contorting and twisting to put them at ease
And I've been free
Forging a different path
Marching to my own beat
But whether mountain or valley
The bedrock was always me
I'm either my friend or enemy
I tripped and fell
Many of those rocks I placed myself
And loud was the shame
But through it all my passion will remain
Because to the life I want, I have the key
Nothing's standing in my way but me
I've sabotaged myself
Afraid of the cards I've been dealt
But it's time to take charge of my dreams
Through life I've been mistreated
But I will not be defeated
I will fulfill my destiny
The power lies in me
I tripped and fell
Many of those rocks I placed myself
And loud was the shame
But through it all my passion will remain
Because to the life I want, I have the key
Nothing's standing in my way but
Me
I tripped and fell
Many of those rocks I placed myself
And loud was the shame
But through it all my passion will remain
Because to the life I want, I have the key
Nothing's standing in my way but me
Nothing's standing in my way but me
Nothing's standing in my way but me
No, nothing's standing in my way but me
Nothin's standing in my way but me
No, nothing's standing in my way but me
Oh, nothing's standing in my way but me
