They threw us lies, they knew it well
They only saw us blinded fools, yes me and you
Building walls hiding truth but they'll just have to understand
(Understand)
It burns inside
To stand upright, defend my pride
Determined I'm trying to stand against, still the pain remains
Lost and found, right or wrong
I'm standing behind off all that I am, being a slave no more
Strength! Strength!
It burns deeper inside of me
Strength! Strength!
It holds all that I have to give
Speak of truth, what is right
I've been through all this thousand times (thousand times)
I can't stand more
Sick and tired of being down and feeling all the scars they gave
(Scars they gave)
Just can't' stand more
Won't play the rules of fuckin' fools
Believing they're made up for my own sake, did you think I'm blind?
Broke the bound the rebel's out
Believing and fighting for all that I've left, what I hold for true
Strength! Strength!
It burns deeper inside of me
Strength! Strength!
It holds all that I have to give
There was a time in my life when I was asking myself
How can I change tomorrow if I can't change today
I had stopped believing in myself but now I feel stronger
Stronger than all
Now, I'm standing, I'm facing
If they think they know me
They fuckin' lie to themselves
I'm not their victim anymore
I'm their fear
Now, determined I'm fighting, I'm rising
They light the flame
The trusted laws that judge us all
Their goddamn oppression won't work on me, all it's given is
Another day, new leveled hate with standing the bullshit I have to take
Will despite the pain
Strength! Strength!
It burns deeper inside of me
Strength! Strength!
It hold all that I have to give
Feeling the rebel's out
