Hablado:
You can say what you want about me
Wanna do what you want to me
But you can not stop me
I've been knocked down
It's a crazy town
Even got a punch in the face in LA
Ain't nothing in the world that you keep
Me from doing what I wanna do
'Cause I'm too proud, I'm too strong
Life by the code that you gotta move on
Feel excited for yourself
And got nobody no way
ESTRIBILLO:
So I (Held my head high)
Knew I (Knew I survive)
Well I made it (I made it)
I don't hate it (Don't hate it)
That's just the way it goes, yeah
I done made it through
Stand on my own two
I paid my dues, yeah
Tried to hold me down
You can't stop me now
I paid my dues
Hablado:
So straight back on
You cannot stop me
I paid my dues
Now I'm still trusted every day
People try to mess with Anastacia
Gotta nothing in common
Cause I handle mine
And I thought I better let you know
I'm no punk I can't get down
I don't give a damn about who's around
that was just fine 'til now
(ESTRIBILLO)
Took so long to get me here (here)
But I won't live in fear (fear)
You try to steal my shine (shine)
But first they wanna build you up (up)
Then they tear you down (down)
It's a struggle, you try to bubble
So I (Held my head high)
Knew I (Knew I survive)
Oahh (I made it)
(Don't hate it)
Said that's - just - the - wayyyyy
(I done made it through)
(Stand on my own two)
I said I paid my, I paid my dues, Yeahhhhh
(Tried to hold me down)
But you can't stop me now (you can't stop me now)
(I paid my dues) I paid my, paid my dues
(I done made it through) oahhh
(Stand on my own two) oh
(I paid my dues) I paid my, I paid my dues
Yeahh (Tried to hold me down)
But you can't stop me now (you can't stop me now)
(I paid my dues) I paid my dues
