lyrics

VERSE 1
Have you ever felt
Nothing’s going right
Everything’s so dark
You can’t see the light
You can’t even breathe
Holding on too tight
Choking on anxiety
Trying hard with all your might
Have you ever felt
Everything’s a mess
You can’t measure up
To everyone’s success
You can’t understand
How everyone’s so blessed
While you’re still barely hanging on
Telling no one you’re depressed

But I’m gonna tell you right now
I’m gonna show you just how
This ain’t how your story’s ending
This ain’t how you’re going down
You got the strength inside you
You got the power to push through
You got the brains and the courage and the heart
To become anything that you want to
You gotta keep on moving
You gotta keep improving
Even in the face of doubt
Even when you’re striking out
When they’re all disapproving
You got determination
Fearless in your frustration
Dare to believe in what you can achieve
To believe in your own creation

CHORUS:
When life knocks you to the ground
Pushes you around
It ain’t gonna keep you down
When life feels like it’ll end
You ain’t gonna stop
You know you’ll get up again
When life knocks you to the ground
Pushes you around
It ain’t gonna keep you down
When life feels like it’ll end
You ain’t gonna stop
You’ll get up again

VERSE 2
I was too afraid
Couldn’t break a rule
Hid behind a mask
Acted like a fool
I was so deranged, so ashamed
Couldn’t feel my heart
Didn’t know that my obedience
Was tearing me apart
Did what I was told
Couldn’t figure out
Why I wasn’t happy
Or what my life was all about
Then I ran away
Just to save myself
Didn’t want to spend my life
Pretending to be someone else

Then I began to wander
Couldn’t lie any longer
Suffered through the pain
Thought I had gone insane
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger
Racism and rejection
Emphasized imperfection
Constantly told that I didn’t fit the mold
And, for years, I had lost my direction
Struggled with integration
Into a foreign nation
Tried to fit in
But I couldn’t begin to progress
I got lost in translation
Lonely and suicidal
Years after my arrival
Then I made a choice
Deep within me, a voice
Gave me strength for my own survival

BRIDGE
This shall pass
It’s temporary
You are strong
Extraordinary
This shall pass
It’s temporary
You are strong
Extraordinary

Trying to feel a fire
Burning with a desire
Even when life seems dire
Be the one to inspire
Be the one you admire
To the heights you aspire
This is your hour
You have the power
Courage to take you higher
Blinding them with your brilliance
You’re more than your appearance
Trust in your own persistence
If you just go the distance
To be the person you’re meant to
Now understanding your value
You can be great
It’s not too late
Become the best version of you
