Donned in a breezy white dress and lace robe, Perry stands in a bucolic field of yellow daisies as she celebrates her unwavering self-confidence.

"Told them your dreams and they all started laughing/ I guess you're out of your mind till it actually happens," she muses in the opening lyrics as a brilliant smile breaks across her face as she calls herself "one in seven billion."

Her song quickly evolves into a stunning battle cry against those who would sabotage her as she declares she will walk her own path under her own terms until the day she dies.

"They told me I was out there, tried to knock me down/ Took those sticks and stones, showed 'em I could build a house/ They tell me that I'm crazy, but I'll never let 'em change me/ 'Til they cover me in daisies, daisies, daisies," she bellows, once again showing off those powerhouse vocals she unleashed in her prior single "Never Worn White."

With Katy Perry celebrating her 36th birthday, we chose some of our favorite moments from the pop star.

The symbolism-heavy video also depicts Perry dipping her feet into a running stream and, at one point, removing her clothes as she walks into a small pond. She then cradles her baby bump and stares at a waterfall -- symbolizing she has washed herself clean of self doubt.

The music video ends with the 35-year-old standing defiantly atop a cliff and facing the sunset with the wind billowing past her.

Perry's upcoming fifth studio album arrives August 14. As for her baby girl, no word yet!
