Are you ready?
It's time for me to take it
I'm the boss right now
Not gonna fake it
Not when you go down
'Cause this is my game
And you better come to play
I used to hold my freak back
Now I'm letting go
I make my own choice
[Clean version:] Yeah I run this show
[Explicit version:] Bitch, I run this show
So leave the lights on
No, you can't make me behave
So you say I'm complicated
That I must be outta my mind
But you've had me underrated
Rated, rated, rated
What's wrong with being, what's wrong with being
What's wrong with being confident?
What's wrong with being, what's wrong with being
What's wrong with being confident?
It's time to get the chains out
Is your tongue tied up?
'Cause this is my ground
And I'm dangerous
And you can get off
But it's all about me tonight
So you say I'm complicated
That I must be outta my mind
But you've had me underrated
Rated, rated, rated
What's wrong with being, what's wrong with being
What's wrong with being confident?
What's wrong with being, what's wrong with being
What's wrong with being confident?
What's wrong with being, what's wrong with being
What's wrong with being confident?
What's wrong with being, what's wrong with being
What's wrong with being confident?
So you say I'm complicated
But you've had me underrated
What's wrong with being, what's wrong with being
What's wrong with being confident?
What's wrong with being, what's wrong with being
What's wrong with being confident?
What's wrong with being, what's wrong with being
What's wrong with being confident?
What's wrong with being, what's wrong with being
What's wrong with being confident?

Music Video:
The music video for "Confident" was released on October 9, 2015 through Lovato's Vevo channel. The video directed by Robert Rodriguez, who is known for Sin City, Machete and the Spy Kids franchise. The video stars Lovato as well as Michelle Rodriguez, Jeff Fahey, Zane Holtz and Marko Zaror.It was shot at Troublemaker Studios for two days in Austin, Texas. Lovato had asked Robert Rodriguez to direct the music video after meeting him through her role as Maia in From Dusk till Dawn: The Series. Rodriguez stated: "I wanted it to look like a movie, not like a vamped up, over-the-top music video or a movie in a video, but actually something that looked like it was from a spy film. I felt it was this great culmination of movie, ideas and visuals all put together into this song created by Demi Lovato."
The video starts with Lovato in a maximum security prison, where she's granted a pardon for selling out Rodriguez's character by a U.S. Marshal. Lovato is sent to set up Rodriguez, but Lovato soon realizes that Rodriguez is a step ahead of her. As the police attempt to take Lovato back to prison, she breaks free and jumps into Rodriguez's trailing car. A fistfight ensues before the pair realize they were both played (and branded) by the marshal. The two women team up and apprehend the marshal, who is later exposed by the police.
