There was a girl I knew
Who always wanted to
Be the one to stand out from the crowd
Always believed that she
Was gonna live her dreams
That what went down was gonna come around
For all the doubters
Nonbelievers
The cynical that once were dreamers
One of these days you'll open up your eyes
And you'll realize

That girl was a onetime
Teenage drama queen
A hot tough
Everyday wannabe
But she'll have changed her destiny
Now she's a somebody
That girl was a wild child dreamer
But she'll find herself
Cuz' she believes in nothing else
Then you'll look back and you won't believe
That girl was me

Armed with an attitude
That she knows how to use
She's gonna get there anyway she can
Now she knows what she wants
No one is gonna stop her
Nothings ever gonna hold her back
For all the doubters
Nonbelievers
The cynical that once were dreamers
One of these days you'll know that you were wrong
Who would know?

That girl was a onetime
Teenage drama queen
A hot tough
Everyday wannabe
But she'll have changed her destiny
Now she's a somebody
That girl was a wild child dreamer
But she'll find herself
Cuz' she believes in nothing else
Then you'll look back and you won't believe
That girl was me

Life is a work of art
You gotta paint it colorful
Can make it anything you want
Don't have to stick to any rules
You don't need a high IQ
To succeed in what you do
You just gotta have no doubt
Just believe in yourself
Doubters
Nonbelievers
Once were her dreamers
One of these days you'll open up your eyes
And you'll realize

That girl was a onetime
Teenage drama queen
A hot tough
Everyday wannabe
But she'll have changed her destiny
Now she's a somebody
That girl was a wild child dreamer
But she'll find herself
Cuz' she believes in nothing else
Then you'll look back and you won't believe
That girl was me
