Lyrics
Can't Take Me Down
I faced my enemy, one on one
see my smile, try and make me run
you may have won the battle today
but I will win the war
you dont know me, but I keep score
I wear my scars like medals of honor on my chest
always declaring I am stronger than the rest
the more you try and hurt me
the stronger ill get, you'll see
Can't Take Me Down
Can't Take Me Down
Can't Take Me Down
every day I drown in my tears
fought hard for many years
dont worry, I just bury the fear
always feeling lonely in the dark
Every battle left a mark
I wear my scars like medals of honor on my chest
always declaring I am stronger than the rest
the more you try and hurt me
the stronger ill get, you'll see
Can't Take Me Down
I smile through the pain, I’ll be all right
you can only torment me through the dark of night
ill be fine again in the morning light
you better be ready for a fight
some called it luck, but it's called grace
there is a painful story on my face
I just close my eyes and pray
I made it through another day
I Still dance when no one’s around
They said the odds weren’t on my side
I just laughed and stayed alive
I wear my past like armor now
You can’t break me, Can't Take Me Down
Ive been through it all — and still wear my crown
no matter how hard you try to make me cry
my eyes will always remain dry
Can't Take Me Down
Can't Take Me Down
Can't Take Me Down
