I stayed inside for all my life
Emotions cut me like a knife
Cause I thought they could live their life without me, without me
It's hard to wake up in the dirt
That you made with your lack of worth
But I got off the cursed dirt and changed me, and changed me

I was looking for a heart inside a body that was made of steel
Looking for a soul that had the capability to feel
I was looking far and wide for someone just to keep me close and say
Don't cry, cause you really matter
Nothing's wrong with you, ok

You've got the power
You've got it in you
You've got the power
It's what you've been looking for

I've battled anger, woe, and pain
It never hit me quite the same
As those who couldn't see the pain within me, within me
I needed power just to love
It took me too long to get up
But now there's something I can love

I was looking for a heart inside a body that was made of steel
Looking for a soul that had the capability to feel
I was looking far and wide for someone just to keep me close and say
Don't cry, cause you really matter
Nothing's wrong with you, ok

You've got the power
You've got it in you
You've got the power
It's what you've been looking for

And I'm in the fire
Burning like I'm standing on the sun
Cause I'm never looking back

And I'm in the water
Swimming in the teardrops of my youth
Cause I'm never turning back
I'm never turning back

I was looking for a heart inside a body that was made of steel
I was looking far and wide for someone just to keep me close and say
Don't cry

I was looking for a heart inside a body that was made of steel
Looking for a soul that had the capability to feel
I was looking far and wide for someone just to keep me close and say
Don't cry, cause you really matter
Nothing's wrong with you, ok

You've got the power
You've got it in you
You've got the power

You've got the power
You've got it in you
You've got the power
It's what you've been looking for
