Feel like I've been locked up   Nobody seen, let's go   Come on, come on   Baby, baby, baby   I grant you three wishes 'cause I be the genie   Christina Aguilera      It seems like a lifetime   Since I felt like a prisoner of my dreams, yeah, yeah   It took such a long time   For me to realize just how to be and to listen to me      Don't go thinking I'm not thankful   'Cause me, I've got my hands full of good things   And I hope I can give back   A little bit of what you've given me      So thank you for standing right by me, I will always love you   So thank you for being behind me, you are just so amazing   And watching me grow and letting others know   That you still believe in what I'll be      So people have said things in times   About me that weren't always true, ooh, yeah   But you've always been there   To give that extra love to pull me through, to do what I gotta do      'Cause there'll always be those ups and downs   But you've always seemed to stick around and see   See me through to believe, yeah      And I hope I can give back   A little bit of what you've given me   You given me all that I need, yeah      So thank you for standing right by me, I thank you for everything   So thank you for being behind me, thank you, Christina   And watching me grow and letting others know   That you still believe in what I'll be, sing it, girl      It took awhile 'til I could do what I wanted   And now I'm so happy that it started where we started   I'm thanking God that I could be in the position   To do my own thing now and make my own decisions      And so I'm thanking you for being true   And standing by me through and through
