Lyrics
[Verse 1]

Rolling hard with my best friend

I love myself tonight

Blazing, clear-cut confidence

We’ve only got one life

[Pre-Chorus]

I’m livin’, I’m livin’

I’m livin’ by nobodies’ rules

So don’t you take me for a fool

Cause I’m a million dollar jewel

I live my life fearlessly

So come and roll with me, roll with me

[Chorus]

I’m ready for the revolution

And you don’t get to tell me who to be, to be

I’m an independent woman

And I’m the one who decides that I’m free, I’m free

Of cruel rule

Cruel rule

[Verse 2]

I can look you dead in the eye

And hope to god you die

I don’t wanna see my friends

Go down ‘cause of your lies

[Pre-Chorus]

I’m livin’, I’m livin’

I’m livin’ by nobodies’ rules

So don’t you take me for a fool

Cause I’m a million dollar jewel

I live my life fearlessly

So come and roll with me, roll with me

[Chorus]

I’m ready for the revolution

And you don’t get to tell me who to be, to be

I’m an independent woman

And I’m the one who decides that I’m free, I’m free

Of cruel rule

Cruel rule
