Intro: 00:00 - 00:15

I can be anything that I wanna be

I can be anything that I wanna be

Verse 1: 00:16 - 00:44

For so long, I’ve been waiting for your approval

For so long, I didn’t know what to do

For too long, I gave my power right over to you

For way too long, I’ve been lost

Pre-chorus: 00:46 - 01:01

Today I looked in the mirror, and guess what I said?

I said “I can be anything that I wanna be”

I looked in the mirror, and guess what I said back to me?

I said “I am everything that I wanna be!”

Chorus: 01:01 - 01:30

If I can see it, if I can feel it, if I can hear it, if I can taste it

Then I can be it, and I can have it, and I can do it…. yeah

I can be anything that I wanna be

If I can see it, if I can feel it, if I can hear it, if I can taste it

Then I can be it, and I can have it, and I can do it

I can be anything that I wanna be

Verse 2: 01:31 - 02:00

And I’m sick of being my old self, there’s a new dawn in me-me-me-me-me

Don’t wanna hear my same old excuses, there’s a new heart I need-need-need-need-need

I’m wiping my old tears, I’m shedding that old pain 

I’ve got to bring these dreams into my new reality

I’ve got a purpose here, and now I gotta fly… fly fly!
 

Pre-chorus 2: 02:01 - 02:15

Today I looked in the mirror, and guess what I said?

I said “I can be anything that I wanna be”

I looked in the mirror, and guess what I said back to me?

I said “I said I am everything that I wanna be!”

Chorus 2: 02:16 - 02:45

If I can see it, if I can feel it, if I can hear it, if I can taste it

Then I can be it, and I can have it, and I can do it

(I can be anything that I wanna be) yeah

Yeah if I can see it, if I can feel it, if I can hear it, if I can taste it

Then I can be it, and I can have it, and I can do it

(I can be anything that I wanna be) 

Breakdown: 02:46 - 02:59

Break it down,

C’mon

Break it down now

Lemme hear you say it

Vamp: 03:00 - 04:19

If I can see (if I can see)

If I can feel (if I can feel)

If I can hear it (if I can hear) 

(I can be anything that I wanna be)

If I can taste (if I can taste)

Then I can be it (then I can be)

And I can have it (and I can have)

And I can do it (and I can do it)

(I can be anything that I wanna be)

If you know what you wanna be, if you know what you wanna be, let me hear you say

(I can be anything that I wanna be)

If you can see it, if you can feel it

(I can be anything that I wanna be)
 

All you gotta do is believe
