Background

Initially, the song was given the title "Aku Cinderella" but it was later changed to "Aku Stacy". It refers to someone who is physically and emotionally hurt by her opportunist lover. Regardless of her attempts to end the relationship, it all becomes futile. In the end, she realizes that in order to be free, she has to stand strong and face her deepest fear, which is to sacrifice her feelings and love towards her lover, in order to "conquer" him.

Stacy performed the song during final concert of Akademi Fantasia before she was crowned as the winner of the season. The day after her win, the song was released as a single in Era FM.

Song structure

The lyrics of the studio version are slightly altered; in the second verse, Stacy sings, "ingin mengaut apa saja yang ada/namun aku penghalang", whereas in the original live recording, she sings, "aku yang berlagak bagai raja di istana/jadikan ku sang abdi".
