So many people tried to stop me
Doing what I wanna do
'Cause I put my faith in everyone
And now I can see right through'Cause each one of you took a part of me
And tried to put me down
But I'm gonna rise above the skies
'Cause now I wear the crownI know and I can see
What everybody has done to me
I know and I will be
I've got my mother and she's with meYou tried to be a friend of mine
But I can see right in your eyes
You lie, you're sly, you try to deny
And you ain't no friend of mineSo don't try and build a fire
In that cave you call your soul
The knight pulls down, the shadow of swords
And you know, you'll never win this warI know and I can see
What everybody has done to me
I know and I will be
I've got my mother and she's with meI know and I can see
What everybody has done to me
