Something Inside's So Strong
Lyrics
The higher you build your barriers,
The taller I become.
The farther you take my rights away,
The faster I will run.
You can deny me,
You can decide,
To turn your face away.
No matter, ’cos there’s
Somethin’ inside so strong,
I know that I can make it,
Though you’re doin’ me wrong, so wrong.
You thought that my pride was gone,
Oh no,
Somethin’ inside so strong,
Oh,
Somethin’ inside so strong.
(Part 1) The more you refuse to hear my voice,
(Part 2) Away, away, away, away.
(Part 1) The louder I will sing.
You hide behind walls of Jericho,
(Part 2) Away, away, away, away.
(Part 1) Your lies will come tumbling.
(Part 1)
Deny my place in time,
You squander wealth that’s mine,
My light will shine,
It will blind you,
’Cos there’s,
Somethin’ inside so strong,
I know that I can make it,
Thought you’re doin’ me wrong, so wrong.
You thought that my pride was gone,
Oh no,
Somethin’ inside so strong,
Oh,
Somethin’ inside so strong.
Brothers and sisters,
When they insist we’re just not good enough,
When we know better,
Just look ‘em in the eyes and say,
‘We’re gonna do it anyway,
We’re gonna do it anyway,
We’re gonna do it anyway,
We’re gonna do it anyway.’
Because there’s,
Somethin’ inside so strong,
I know that I can make it,
Thought you’re doin’ me wrong, so wrong.
You thought that my pride was gone,
Oh no,
Somethin’ inside so strong.
(Repeat)
Oh, somethin’ inside so strong.
(Repeat x2)
