Wrong
Kimberley Locke Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You can say I'm weak, can say I'm frail
But your presumptions won't prevail
I'm made of more than what you see
You tell me to twist, tell me to bend
But I won't break just to fit in
Just shut your mouth and listen up

I was so naive to let you have control of me
But now that I believe in me I know, oh

You're wrong, and I'm strong, unafraid of moving on
'Cause I'm free to be me, nobody tells me who to be
You're wrong, and I'm strong, unafraid of moving on
'Cause I'm free to be me, nobody tells me who to be, yeah

I'm on the outside looking in
No longer do I pretend to be something that I'm not, yeah
I don't run and I don't hide
Behind a comfort in disguise
What you see is what you get

I was so naive to let you have control of me
But now that I believe in me I know, oh

You're wrong, and I'm strong, unafraid of moving on
'Cause I'm free to be me, nobody tells me who to be
You're wrong, and I'm strong, unafraid of moving on
'Cause I'm free to be me, nobody tells me who to be, yeah

I wouldn't change a thing
'Cause life is how you grow
You live, you learn, and then you know

That you're wrong, and I'm strong, unafraid of moving on
'Cause I'm free to be me, nobody tells me who to be
You're wrong, and I'm strong, unafraid of moving on
'Cause I'm free to be me, nobody tells me who to be

You're wrong, and I'm strong, unafraid of moving on
'Cause I'm free to be me, nobody tells me who to be




You're wrong, and I'm strong, unafraid of moving on
'Cause I'm free to be me, nobody tells me who to be, yeah
