I've lived my life like a masochist Hearing my father say, 'Told you so, told you so! Why can't you be like the other girls?' I said, 'Oh no, that's not me And I don't think that it'll ever be' Thought I belong to a different tribe Walking alone, never satisfied, satisfied Trying to fit in but it wasn't me I said, 'Oh no, I want more That's not what I'm looking for' So I took the road less traveled by And I barely made it out alive Through the darkness somehow I survived Tough love, I knew it from the start Deep down in the depth Of my rebel heart I've spent some time as a narcissist Hearing the others say, 'Look at you, look at you! Trying to be so provocative' I said, 'Oh yeah, that was me' All the things I did just to be seen Outgrown my past and I've shed my skin Letting it go and I'll start again, start again Never look back, it's a waste of time I said, 'Oh yeah, this is me And I'm right here where I wanna be' I said, 'Hell yeah, this is me Right where I'm supposed to be' So I took the road less traveled by And I barely made it out alive Through the darkness somehow I survived Tough love, I knew it from the start Deep down in my rebel heart So I took the road less traveled by And I barely made it out alive Through the darkness somehow I survived Tough love, I knew it from the start Deep down in the depth Of my rebel heart Of my rebel heart In my rebel heart
