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 when down was gonna come around
For all the doubters, non-believers,
The cynical that once were dreamers
One of these days you'll open up your eyes
And you'll realize

[Chorus]

That girl was a one time teenage drama queen
A hyped up everyday wannabee
But she'll have changed her destiny
Now she's a somebody
That girl was a wild child dreamer but she found herself
'Cause she believes in nothin' else
And 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 any way she can
Now she knows what she wants
No one is gonna stop her
Nothing's ever gonna hold her down
For all the doubters,
Non-believers the cynical that once were dreamers
One of these days you'll know that you were wrong (who would know)

[Chorus]

[Spoken:]

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, non-believers, once were dreamers
One of these days you'll open up your eyes
And you'll realize

[Chorus 2X]
