Music video


Many critics saw the song as a source of strength and inspiration,[3] which is why in the music video, directed by Matthew Rolston, Jamelia is depicted as the four elements. She commented that when thinking of ideas for the music video she wanted to focus on the positive side of the song, not the negative.[3]
