The higher you build your barrier
The taller I become
The further you take my rights away
The faster I will run
You can deny me, you can decide
To turn your face away
No matter, 'cause there's ...
Something inside so strong
I know that I can make it
Though you're doing me wrong, so wrong
You thought that my pride was gone, oh no
Something inside so strong
Whoa, something inside so strong
The more you refuse to hear my voice
The louder I will sing
You hide behind walls of Jericho
Your lies will come tumbling
Deny my place in time
You swander wealth that's mine
My light will shine so brightly
It will blind you, 'cause there's ...
Something inside so strong, so strong
I know that I can make it
Though you're doing me wrong, so wrong
You thought that my pride was gone, oh no
Something inside so strong
Whoa, something inside so strong
Brothers and sisters
When they insist we're just not good enough
But we know better
Just look 'em in the eyes and say:
I'm gonna do it anyway, I'm gonna do it anyway
Something inside so strong
And I know that I can make it
Though you're doing me wrong, so wrong
You thought that my pride was gone, oh no
Something inside so strong
Whoa, something inside so strong
Brothers and sisters
When they insist we're just not good enough
But we know better
Just look 'em in the eyes and say:
I'm gonna do it anyway, I'm gonna do it anyway
I'm gonna do it anyway, I'm gonna do it anyway
Because there's ...
(Something inside so strong) inside so strong
(I know that I can make it) I can make it
(Though you're doing me wrong, so wrong)
(You thought that my pride was gone, oh no) oh no
Something inside so strong
(Something inside so strong)
(I know that I can make it) I can make it
(Though you're doing me wrong, so wrong) me wrong
You thought that my pride was gone, (oh no) oh no
Something inside so strong
Oh, something inside so strong
Oh, something inside so strong
Something inside so strong
