Barbie - What If I Shine

I spend too much time thinking about

who I'm supposed to be

I play by everybody's rules

I'm cool and polite

When I get a chance

I run and I hide

If your eyes are closed

What if I back down now

'cause I'm afraid of what might happen

What if they turn away

when I show them who I truly am

What if I lose my breath

when I throw those big doors open

Or tonight, just tonight

What if I shine?

maybe I'll be set free

What if I back down now

'cause I'm afraid of what might happen

What if they turn away

when I show them who I truly am

What if I lose my breath

when I throw those big doors open

Or tonight, just tonight

What if I shine?

who I'm supposed to be

But what if I sing out loud?

Because anything can happen

What if I stand up proud

and I show them who I truly am?

They're gonna call my name

and I'll throw these big doors open

'Cause tonight, just tonight

I'm gonna shine
