Sticks and Stones Video (MV)

When I was young I built a dam
Collecting sticks and leading all my friends
Back then

The world would say this wasn't right
A true born leader would clearly be a guy
That's why...

They would say

"Stupid girl, you stupid girl, you shouldn't be here
You won't get anywhere doing that, so stop that
Be like your sister"
But she knew she was nothing like her

So she put away the sticks and stones
And played the games that girls were supposed to
Got lost in the motions of life...

When they would drag her spirit down
She didn't know how to speak out
Or stand up for herself

When they would say

"Stupid girl, you stupid girl, you don't belong here
You won't get anywhere doing that, so stop that
Be less annoying"
Left her in the corner crying

This ain't no pity story
She's grown and she knows who she wants to be
And that's all she needs

The stones they used against her
Well she's built a bridge and now she's finally free
In a world just for... Me

No stupid girl, I ain't no stupid girl
I will be everywhere and I can be anything that I want
Cus I'm strong
And they can't hurt me
If they can't reach me in these clouds
They're on the ground
