Courtney Reed, Tia Altinay, Khori Michelle Petinaud & Marisha Wallace these palace walls

Select language to translate this lyric

Suitors talk of love but it's an act, merely meant to throw me
How could someone love me when in fact, they don't know me
They want my royal treasure, when all is said and done
It's time for a desperate measure, so I wonder
Why shouldn't I fly so far from here
I know the girl I might become here
Sad and confined and always locked behind these palace walls
Told to show devotion everyday
And not second guess it
If a new emotion comes my way
You suppress it
What would be your suggestion
Stand on your own two feet
And ask why a certain question keeps repeating
Why shouldn't I fly so far from here
I know the girl I might become here
Follow your heart or you might end up cold and callous
Love comes to those who go and find it
If you've a dream then stand behind it
Maybe there's more beyond these palace walls
What if I dared
What if I tried
Am I prepared for what's outside
Why shouldn't I fly so far from here
Something awaits beyond these palace walls
Something waits beyond these palace walls
