Everyone tries to hard   to keep me down   spit on my dreams   crash to the ground   I've got a voice   and it will be heard   sticks and stones   I'm not hurt by words      You threaten me   with threats of conformity   Challenge me   With false beliefs   When the smoke clears   You'll see me grin   A testament   A prophecy      Look in your mirror   What do you see   Becoming so clear   looking down on me      You gotta good idea   Of what I should be   Well I don't need my   Mind made up for me      Look in the mirror   What do you see   Your hollow words   have no effect on me      I wont let you beat me into the ground.   I will endure.
