  • Sometimes when I'm sitting on my bed
    Feeling so so lonely
    Wishing someone hold me
    All I have is three little notes playing in my head

    Outside I can cover all the scars
    Inside lie the words just pleading to be heard
    'Cause all I have are three million melodies to kill all the hurt
    Now I'm ready gonna sing 'em all out
    Sing 'em out just for myself
    I don't even care what the world thinks about how I sound

    'Cause when I open my mouth
    My whole heart comes out
    Every tear I wanna cry is satisfied
    I'm singing till I'm winning, Imma sing all night
    'Cause when I open my mouth
    There's no place to hide
    Everything that I've been feeling runs wild and free
    I'm singing 'cause, I'm winning Imma sing for me

    I stand and believe in who I am
    Take shots at my heart but who am I to give up
    Everybody needs a melody to set their souls free
    My stage is the greatest in the world
    Give back to the ones who struggle with me stay true
    Reminding me to see my only chosen destiny
    And now I'm ready now I'm gonna sing it all out
    Sing it out just for myself
    I don't even care what the world thinks about how I sound
    'Cause when I open my mouth
    My whole heart comes out
    Every tear I wanna cry is satisfied
    I'm singing till I'm winning Imma sing all night
    'Cause when I open my mouth
    There's no place to hide
    Everything that I've been feeling runs wild and free
    I'm singing 'cause I'm winning Imma sing for me

    Sing for me (Sing for me)
    Sing for myself
    Sing what I believe
    Make my whole heart come out
    Right where I am let the rain come down
    Sing for me (Sing for me)
    Sing for myself, sing what I believe
    Let my whole heart come out
    Right here right now make my own, my very own sound

    'Cause when I open my mouth
    My whole heart comes out
    Every tear I wanna cry is satisfied
    I'm singing till I'm winning Imma sing all night
    'Cause when I open my mouth
    There's no place to hide
    Everything that I've been feeling runs wild and free
    I'm singing 'cause I'm winning Imma sing for me Writer/s: AEON MANAHAN, CHRISTINA AGUILERA, VIRGINIA BLACKMORE
