I never could've told you anything I long for

While I was in the water swimming 'gainst tides we're taught to

Take it in our stride, laugh it off, take it on the chin just right

Don't be too loud or too quiet, but I got all this fight

And now I see it clear with every passing of each year

I deserve to be here

And every time I fall, I crawl back like an animal

My focus is powerful

We never had it better, my head and heart together

Before the pushing and the pulling, the shape-shifting I'm doing

To give them what they want, whether it's what I want or not

You see it wasn't up to me, but now it could be

And now I see it clear with every passing of each year

I deserve to be here

And every time I fall, I crawl back like an animal

My focus is powerful

And now, I know you're feeling ready for your bow

But the world is in your hands, you took it down

So what are you gonna do with it now?

Keep singing, singing, singing now

And now I see it clear with every passing of each year

I deserve to be here

And every time I fall, I crawl back like an animal

My focus is powerful

And now, I know you're feeling ready for your bow

But the world is in your hands, you took it down

So what are you gonna do with it now?

Keep singing, singing, singing now

And now I see it clear with every passing of each year

I deserve to be here

And every time I fall, I crawl back like an animal

My focus is powerful
