I'm on the road to my rewards
I wanna be adored, I know who I am
And to the ones who passed me on
Who wouldn't hear my song, did not give a damn
You never gave me any time
And I was always last in line
It was so blatant, cold and cruel
You talked over every line I'd sing
Somehow your phone would always ring
You made me feel like such a fool
You championed everyone but me
Played on my insecurities, filled me with doubt
You've never liked, you've never shared
It's clear you do not care what I'm about
I'm well aware you have a choice
You've every right to air your voice
I know that I'm far from perfect
Have an opinion, have your view
But you don't have to make me blue
Showing me so much disrespect
Though I know it's made me stronger
And resolute to prove you wrong
I know it will not be much longer
Till everybody hears my song
And when I reach those dizzy heights
When I am out of sight you may regret
All of the times you did not stay
The times walked away, don't think I'll forget
And when that spotlight shines on me
I will excel, I will be free
To live the life I'm meant to live
All that I touch will turn to gold
Ill be in demand and in control
You'll see just what I have to give
Cos I know it made me stronger
It brought me where I longed to be
I knew it wouldn't be much longer
To show you what I could foresee"
