好听的英文歌曲：I Always Knew - Jem

I always knew I would one day be here
But I couldn't be a puppet¹ on a string²
I've had my fights, often I've been KO'd
But I've got back up though I won't give in
And now I know how it works³
If you're too nice you lose
I'm gonna make it to the top well let me show you
And if I've got to toughen up then that is what I'll do
Don't hate me. I'm not so crazy. 
You'd be crazy that's for sure.
Becoming a bitch is not what I got into music for.
I remember back to a datching way
Where two young boys started mocking⁴ me
I looked at them. Thought I'll show you one day
But I didn't fight or stand up for me.
And that young girls learn the hard way
If you're too nice you lose.
I'm gonna make it to the top well let me show you
And if I've got to toughen up then that is what I'll do
Don't hate me. I'm not so crazy. 
You'd be crazy that's for sure.
Becoming a bitch is not what I got into music for.
I'll make it crystal⁵ clear that I am not going anywhere
As long as there is music, I'll be here.
I'm gonna make it to the top well let me show you
And if I've got to toughen up then that is what I'll do
Don't hate me. I'm not so crazy. 
You'd be crazy that's for sure.
Becoming a bitch is not what I got into music for.
I'm gonna make it to the top well let me show you
And if I've got to toughen up then that is what I'll do
I've sold you a million baby, 
not just maybe that's for sure
Given the chance I'll show you I can sell a million more.
