English singer-songwriter Rebecca Ferguson has shared the music video for the title track from her “Superwoman” album.
The song, written by Rebecca along with Negin Djafari and James Earp, was not easy for her to write.
“I had quite a bad time with what I wrote Superwoman about” explains the singer. “It’s so personal. It’s so hard to speak about. I found out I was pregnant. I had my beautiful little girl, Arabella, and there was a relationship breakdown. At one point, I was really depressed and people were trying to get me out of bed and I couldn’t. I needed to hear a song or something that could help me. So I decided to make an album that would hopefully encourage other women who were going through similar situations, inspire them and help people who are feeling down to feel better. They can press play and think ‘you know what, if Rebecca can get through it, I can get through it’.”
Lyrics:
I’m not wearing a cape, these are just regular clothes,
And I’m praying to God, ‘come listen this load.
Smiling through the bad times, but it’s all just for show
Saving my tears for when I’m alone.
And I loose my shit every now and then
I break down big then I start again
And I never said I was superwoman.
Never said… I never said it.
Never ever said I was more than coping
Never did, I never did
Maybe I’m mad, maybe I’m all cried out
Maybe I’m scared, but I’m comming ’round.
No I never never said I was superwoman
Droping the mask, uncovering my soul,
Loving my scars, letting go of control.
Seeing beauty through the ashes everywhere I go
One minute I’m strong the next I dont know
And I loose my shit every now and then
I break down big then I start again
And I never said I was superwoman,
I never said… I never said it.
Never ever said I was more than coping
I never did, I never did
Maybe I’m mad, maybe I’m all cried out
Maybe I’m scared, but I’m comming ’round.
No I never never said I was more than human
And I wish I could fly
Ttake me away
Take me away
Just fly
Up and escape sometimes
I wish I was strong
Stronger than this aching
It’s breaking me down
And I never ever said I was superwoman
I never said, I never said it.
never ever said I was more than coping
I never did, I never did
And maybe I’m bad, I’m all cried out
And maybe I get scared
But I’ll be comming ’round
And ’round
And ’round
And ’round
And ’round
And ’round
And ’round
And ’round
All cried out
And no I never ever said oh ohh
No no I never never said I was superwoman
I’m not superwoman
