Album: The Cheetah Girls Soundtrack
*VERSE ONE*
-Galleria-
When I was just a little girl
My mama used to tuck me into bed
And she'd read me a story
-Chanel-
It always was about a princess in distress
And how a guy would save her
And end up with the glory
-Dorinda-
I'd lie in bed and think about
The person that I wanted to be
-Aqua-
That was when I realized the
Fairy tale life wasn't for me
-All-
*CHORUS*
I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sittin' in a dark, cold, dusty cellar
Waitin' for sombody to come and set me free
I don't wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Oh I will survive
I know somebody's on my side
Don't wanna be no no no one else
I'd rather rescue myself
*VERSE TWO*
-Dorinda-
Someday I'm gonna find someone
Who wants me for my heart, soul, and mind
Who's not afraid to show that he loves me
-Galleria-
Somebody who will understand
I'm happy just the way I am
Don't need nobody takin' care of me
-Aqua-
I will be there for him
Just as strong as he will be there for me
-Chanel-
When I give myself
It's got to be an equal thing
-All-
*CHORUS*
-All-
*BRIDGE*
I can slay my own dragons
I can dream my own dreams
My knight in shining armor is me
So I'm gonna set me free
*CHORUS* x 2
