We’re So Much Stronger Than Society Believes.
You Can’t Buy What We Got.
I'll keep fighting
rising up -
we rise up.
*
you can't
buy what
I've got -
*
what we
have found.
Turn that
back around
*
hittin' it
pushing
fighting.
Never giving up.
*
Pushing back from
the darkness
tryin' to take my life.
*
And everyday
I get up
and rise.
*
I get up
cos I got wise.
You thought
I could be played.
*
You got it wrong
(wrong)
(wrong)
(wrong)
*
I'll keep fighting
rising up -
we rise up.
*
You can't
buy what
I've got -
*
resilience.
*
Yeah
hittin' harder
than any of you.
*
Walk a mile
in my head
tell me you'd survive.
*
No no no
you couldn't.
So don't stigmatise.
*
No no no
you won't leave me
demoralised.
*
I'm not
givin' up.
Not here.
Not tonight.
*
I've given
too much -
fought too long.
*
You can't
buy what
we've got.
*
We rise up.
We rise up
yeah, yeah,
*
we're risin'
right now -
walking dead.
*
Fighting.
Blinded -
the light's comin
right for us.
*
We don't run.
Nah we ain't
runnin' no more.
*
You can't buy
what we got.
