The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I always knew I would one day be here

But I couldn't be a puppet on a string

I've had my fights, often I've been KO'd

But I've got back up, no I won't give in

And now I know how it works

If you're too nice you lose

I'm gonna make it to the top well let me show you

And if I've got to toughen up then that is what I'll do

Don't make me your master baby, you'd be crazy that's for sure

Becoming a bitch is not what I got into music for

I remember back to a bench in Wales

Where two young boys started mocking me

I looked at them. Thought I'll show you one day

But I didn't fight or stand up for me.

And that young girl's learn the hard way

If you're too nice you lose.

I'm gonna make it to the top well let me show you

And if I've got to toughen up then that is what I'll do

Don't make me your master baby, you'd be crazy that's for sure

Becoming a bitch is not what I got into music for.

I'll make it crystal clear that I am not going anywhere

As long as there is music, I'll be here.

I'm gonna make it to the top well let me show you

And if I've got to toughen up then that is what I'll do

Don't make me your master baby, you'd be crazy that's for sure

Becoming a bitch is not what I got into music for.

I'm gonna make it to the top well let me show you

And if I've got to toughen up then that is what I'll do

I've sold you a million baby, not just maybe that's for sure

Given the chance I'll show you I can sell a million more.
