They say the sky's the limit
But, baby, I see stars
Don't try to hold me back
Or I'll tear you apart
You're content with what you got
But to me it's just a thing
Don't try to hold me back
Baby, I'm a Queen
Got this devil in my heart
Heavy on my mind
Telling to go
Now is the time
If I blink, then I'll lose it
If I'm weak, it will escape
If I wait, it will be gone
This is the only way
There's a war on in my soul
I'm fighting for my life
The battle for survival
The prize is my life
To you it's just a calling
For me it means the world
You call it my little project
But it makes my soul unfurl
Your smile, it seems so empty
When you watch me in this light
Your words are thick with affect
When you cheer me in my fight
I wonder why you stay with me
Wonder why you're even here
Where I make my war to win
If you can't love what I hold so dear
Maybe it's not victory that you want
No, that's not it at all
Maybe you're too weak to fight for yourself
So you just wanna see me fall
I got this devil in my heart
He's heavy on my mind
He's telling to go
So now has got to be the time
They say the sky's the limit
But, baby, I see stars
Don't try to hold me back
Or I'll tear you apart
