Well, I heard some people talkin' just the other day
And they said you were gonna put me on a shelf
But let me tell you I got news for you
And you'll soon find out it's true
And then you'll have to eat your lunch all by yourself
'Cause I'm already gone
And I'm feeling strong
I will sing this victory song, listen
The letter that you wrote me made me stop and wonder why
But I guess you felt like you had to set things right
But just remember this, my friend
When you look up in the sky, you can see the stars
And still not see the light, that's right
And I'm already gone
I'm already gone
And I'm feeling strong
Now I'm feeling strong
I will sing this victory song
Well I know it wasn't you who held me down
Heaven knows it wasn't you who set me free
Oh baby, often times it happens
That we live our lives in chains
And we never even know we have the key oh, no
But me, I'm already gone
I'm already gone
And I'm feeling strong
Now I'm feeling strong
I will sing this victory song
'Cause I'm already gone
'Cause I'm already gone
And I'm feeling strong
And I will sing this victory song
'Cause I'm already gone, already gone
Yeah, I'm already gone
I'm already gone, already gone
I'm feelin' strong
'Cause I'm already gone
Got to sing this song
