I thought you should know, that I've reached that plateau, and it's now time for you to go, to go And hope to convey, that I am here to stay, and you can't take my strength away, no way. You tried to get to me, crawled inside of me, but now I'm purging out the pain, disdain Presumed you could invade my sweet sanctity, taking what's left of me. How condescending. You think you can get to me Well let me tell you something I won't be pushed around, no It's my life, I will not Give up that easy You cannot break me down, oh. You cannot defeat me Leave me be, Leave me be Let me tell you something. As you grow inside me, consuming unjustly, and try to tear my inner core Stripping me of opportunities, while holding back my hopes and dreams. It's temporary. My faith is quite strong, and perseverance long, so you should know that I will not falter. I will take this virion, and deal with it head-on. By using the strength within me. (Chorus) You cannot defeat me Leave me be, Leave me be Let me tell you something.
