We don’t need a prince to save us.
We can get out of this tower by ourselves.
We are strong princesses.

Thank you for offering but please,
We can get ourselves out of this coma.
We don’t need a prince to save us.

We prefer guys who can remember what we look like.
And please, you only found us by our feet?
We are strong princesses.

You expect us to marry you?
Please, we haven’t even had one date.
We don’t need a prince to save us.

We can fight our own dragons,
even if they were conjured by evil witches.
We are strong princesses.

Even if you're cute, it doesn't mean we will marry you.
We are smart, young, and talented princesses.
We don’t need a prince to save us.
We are strong princesses.

It's important for girls to know that they can stand up for themselves and don't need others to save them. Just like boys, they too can learn and use knowledge to take care of (save) themselves.
