Original version[]
Amelia: You might think I have everything
A girl could ever want
A palace full of luxury
And helpers who help 'round the clock
Looking out through royal walls
With every minute planned
What I'd give to have the chance
To hold my future in my own hands?
All they know is from a screen
So, how can I become their queen?
I wanna be me
And make my own decisions
I wanna be free
To chase my own ambitions
I wanna go anywhere
Feel the wind in my hair
And find myself out there in this world
I wanna be me, and not a picture-perfect girl
Barbie: Everybody needs to feel alive
Yeah, everyone deserves a chance to live outside the lines
Amelia: But princesses can't be seen breaking the rules
Barbie: You're a princess; you should be making the rules
Amelia: I wanna be me (Barbie: You gotta be free)
Amelia: And make my own decisions (Barbie: To make your own decisions)
Amelia: I wanna be free (Barbie: Let the world see)
Barbie: Unfiltered, nothing missin'
I wanna go anywhere
Feel the wind in my hair (Barbie: ooh, yeah)
And find myself out there
Both: In this world
Amelia: I wanna be me (Barbie: you gotta be free)
I'm gonna be me, not a picture-perfect girl
Reprise version[]
Barbie: I'm gonna be me
And make my own decisions
I'm gonna be free
Unfiltered, nothing missing
Watch me go anywhere
Feel the wind in my hair
And find myself out there in this world
I'm gonna be me, not a picture-perfect girl
