Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big too ignore
And I know too much to go back and pretend
[Verse 2]
'Cause I've heard it all before
And I've been down there on the floor
And no one's ever gonna keep me down again
[Verse 3]
Oh yes, I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can face anything at all
I am strong
I am invincible
I am woman
[Verse 4]
You can bend but never break me
'Cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
'Cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul
[Verse 5]
Yes, I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can face anything at all
I am strong
I am invincible
I am woman
[Verse 6]
If I have to, I can face anything at all
I am strong
I am invincible
I am woman
