When I was just a little girl
my momma used to tuck me into bed
And she'd read me a story
It always was about a princess in distress and how a guy would save her
who'd leave with her glory
I'll lie in bed and think about the person I wanted to be
then one day i relized fairy tale life wasn't for me

I don't wanna be like Cinderella
sitting in a dark cold dusty cellar
waiting for somebody to come and set me free
>I don't wan't to be like someone waiting for a handsom
prince to come in save me
oh I will survive with someone on my side
don't want to be no no no one else I rather rescue myself
If I just found you
I wouldn't have to do
I don't wanna be saved
I'd rather rescue myself
I can find my own place
I can dream my own dream
Just if you would leave me
I'd be all my fine
I don't wanna be my cinderella
See if you went to come and see me
If I want my life
I'll just have to try
And I don't wanna be my someone baby
Boy don't have a place to come and save me
If I just found you
I wouldn't have to do
I don't wanna be saved
I'd rather rescue myself
