Seem like yesterday, I was a baby on the street I took a holiday, I was steppin' to the beat I had to pay my rent, on the lower East side I threw my tag around, let b-boys take me for a ride
I started writing songs, I kinda got into the groove They tried to criticize my every single move But then I realized I had nothing left to lose It took me by surprise when I became my muse
I was fearless like a renegade I had a feeling that I can't explain I didn't listen to what people said I came, I saw, I conquered
I was constant as the northern star I had a fire burning in my heart I never gave up fighting in the dark I came, I saw, I conquered
Uhh I came, I saw, I conquered Uhh I came, I saw, I conquered
I expressed myself, came like a virgin down the aisle Exposed my naked ass, and I did it with a smile And when it came to sex, I know I walked the borderline And when I struck a pose, all the gay boys lost their mind
I justified my love, I made you say a little prayer They had me crucified, you know I had to take it there I opened up my heart, I learned the power of good-bye I saw a ray of light, music saved my life
I was fearless like a renegade I had a feeling that I can't explain I didn't listen to what people said I came, I saw, I conquered
I was constant as the northern star I had a fire burning in my heart I never gave up fighting in the dark I came, I saw, I conquered
Uhh I came, I saw, I conquered Uhh I came, I saw, I conquered
I conquered, conquered, uhh I conquered
I was fearless like a renegade I had a feeling that I can't explain I didn't listen to what people said I came, I saw, I conquered
I was constant as the northern star I had a fire burning in my heart I never gave up fighting in the dark I came, I saw, I conquered
Uhh I came, I saw, I conquered Uhh I came, I saw, I conquered Uhh I came, I saw, I conquered Uhh I came, I saw, I conquered
