I had a roof overhead Had shoes on my feet Sure I was fed, but no-one was there When I was in need, yeah
So who am I now? Who do you want me to be? I can forgive you, but I won"t relive you I aint the same scared kid I used to be
[Chorus] I"m gonna live I"m gonna survive Don"t want the world to pass me by I"m gonna dream I aint gonna die Thinking my life was just a lie I wanna be loved I wanna be loved
I found a picture Our so-called family tree, yeah I broke all the branches, looking for answers Don"t you know that aint how it"s supposed to be
[Chorus] I"m gonna live I"m gonna survive Don"t want the world to pass me by I"m gonna dream I ain"t gonna die Thinking my life was just a lie I wanna give I"m ready to try Willing to lay it on the line I wanna be loved I wanna be
I aint gonna cry I dont wanna scream But i got so much left unsaid inside of me
