Don't try to tell me I can't do it cause
All that makes me wanna do is do it cause I can
Don't try to tell me I'm not strong enough
All that makes me wanna prove is I'm enough 'cause I am
Too weak, too innocent, showing too much skin
Too sweet, emotions so unstable
Too thin, too accommodating, it's too much it's suffocating
Time's up now Imma turn the tables
Because I'm a girl, gotta be this and that
Because I'm a girl, gotta say this, not that
But because I'm a girl, I'm gonna be strong
Prove 'em wrong
For every girl, I'll conquer the world
Because I'm a girl
You tried to mold me, make me fit inside
Your old school stereotypes, yeah that's nice but I can't
You want to have your cake and eat it too
Act like a lady, but be cool and smile for you, well I'll pass
Too weak too innocent, showing too much skin
Too sweet, emotions so unstable
Too thin, too accommodating, it's too much it's suffocating
Time's up now Imma turn the tables
Because I'm a girl, gotta be this and that
Because I'm a girl, gotta say this, not that
But because I'm a girl, I'm gonna be strong
Prove 'em wrong
For every girl I'll conquer the world
Because I'm a girl
I like who I see staring back at me
I'm alright with her, but not society
Your standards need to leave
Our bodies are for keeps
Your words they cut us deep
But they don't make us bleed
Because we are girls
Because we are girls, gotta be this and that
Because we are girls, gotta say this, not that
Because we are girls, we're gonna reach for the stars
'Cause that's who we are, we'll conquer the world
Because we are girls
