This is what I came for
This is what I’m made for
Give me what I paid for
Said I know I am able
Laid it all out on the table
This is what I prayed for
Give me blood
Give me strength
Give me power
What I’m working for hour after hour
Oh
Just listen to me
I’m standing on my own two
Now, and, you can hand it over
Ain’t no better time than now
I got it all figured out
And I know this don’t come for free (for free)
Call it what you want
I’m all in
Can’t you hear me calling
I ain’t gonna fall back now
You gon’ make me hunt you down
And you know that ain’t good for me (for me)
This is what I aim for
This is not a game no
I don’t really think so
I don’t do well with labels
No time to break it down
I got to make it myself
That’s why I’m standing on my own two
Now, and, you can hand it over
Ain’t no better time than now
I got it all figured out
And I know this don’t come for free (for free)
Call it what you want
I’m all in
Can’t you hear me calling
I ain’t gonna fall back now
You gon’ make me hunt you down
And you know that ain’t good for me (for me)
I need you to give it up
I don’t want to fight you 'til the very end
Just let me light up
I know I can I make it
I know I can take it (take it)
Oh you know I ain’t giving up
Oh I’m aimin' for greatness that’s the way I am
Oh no, no, no
Just let me break it up
I know I can make it
I know I can make it
Give me blood
Give me strength
Give me power
What I’m working for hour after hour
Oh
Just listen to me
That’s why I’m standing on my own two
I’m standing on my own two
Yeah
I’m standing on my own two
