Michelle is a entrepreneurial artist, with her canvases going on display in various locations. But many people don’t see her that way.
She says she is tired of people looking at her as though she can’t do anything for herself.
She is a strong, independent young woman, and she wants the world to see her that way.
So she wrote a song with the lyrics giving voice to how she sees herself. The music is from “Love My Life” by Robbie Williams.
Then she posted a video of her singing it on YouTube so everyone could see her the way she sees herself. Here are the lyrics:
People think I can’t make any decisions for myself
“Oh look at her, she can’t make choices, we will do it for her.”
I know what I’m doing. I know what I want.
I can do anything I put my mind to.
I’m Michelle, I won’t back down, I can’t back down.
You won’t walk all over me. I’m powerful. I am free.
I am independent. I’m outspoken. Don’t mess with me.
I can speak up for myself, I talk to people every day.
I tell people what I want, and what I need.
I know what I’m doing. I know what I want.
I can do anything I put my mind to.
I’m Michelle. I won’t back down, I can’t back down.
You won’t walk all over me. I’m powerful. I am free.
I am independent. I’m outspoken. Don’t mess with me.
