How would you recognise the contribution of one of the biggest EDM stars to this song, apart from the obvious corresponding tune? Optimistic and naive lyrics like that will eventually find their place with that song. Those PLUR kids nowdays....
Break Free
Lyrics
If you want it, take it
I should've said it before
Tried to hide it, fake it
I can't pretend anymore
I only wanna die alive
Never by the hands of a broken heart
I don't wanna hear you lie tonight
Now that I've become who I really am
This is the part when I say I don't want ya
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
'Cause I can't resist it no more
This is the part when I say I don't want ya
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
'Cause I can't resist it no more
You were better, deeper
I was under your spell, yeah
Like a deadly fever, yeah, babe
On the highway to hell, yeah
I only wanna die alive
Never by the hands of a broken heart
I don't wanna hear you lie tonight
Now that I've become who I really am
This is the part when I say I don't want ya
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
'Cause I can't resist it no more
This is the part when I say I don't want ya
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
'Cause I can't resist it no more
No more, baby, ooh
Thought of your body, I came alive
It was lethal, it was fatal
In my dreams, it felt so right
But I woke up every time
Oh, baby
This is the part when I say I don't want ya
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
'Cause I can't resist it no more
This is (this is) the part when I say I don't want ya
I'm stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
'Cause I can't resist it no more

What is the Meaning of Break Free
?
Some lyrics make very little grammatical sense, but looking past that it's actually pretty decent lyrically. It's pretty clearly a "breakup" song of some sort, but I'm not sure it's necessarily about a partner. I think this song is about Ariana's distancing from her Nickoldeon past, and her search to find herself as a more 'mature' artist. Some have also said it's about the illuminati! I don't usually give those theories much weight but this song does have some interesting symbology.
