Thumb break my back

Select language to translate this lyric

They wanted to break my back
Wanted to hold me back from being free
They had a part for me in society
But that wasn't me
They gave me an early start
When they broke my heart I needed to see
That if I wanted to be myself
I couldn't be myself without me
So here I am
I stepped out
To be free
'Cause with all that's left inside of me
With my back against the wall
I can still decide what's best for me
I can still say all I want, now that I'm free
I needed to learn the truth, I had to find my own destiny
Ev'rybody would pass me by, I couldn't pacify the urge in me
'Cause I was given wings to fly, that I was meant to try can't you see
That if I wanted to be myself I couldn't be myself without me
So here I am
I stepped out
To be free
'Cause with all that's left inside of me
With my back against the wall
I can still decide what's best for me
I can still stay in control, now that I'm free
You didn't think that I would try
You never knew what's on my mind
You didn't think I'd really try to be more than this?
I had to live in agony
I knew you're looking down on me
But I always knew that I would be so much more than this
'Cause with all that's left inside of me
With my back against the wall
I can still decide what's best for me
I can still say all I want, now that I'm free
