can’t break me
[Verse 1]
From the start you tried to hurt me
Tried to keep me down
Tried to use your power to drown me out
I pushed myself to work harder
Was I invisible?
Or was that just not enough for your ego
[Pre-Chorus]
You told me lies that I’m just not buying
Saying I’m broken
It’s time for my voice to come out of hiding
You can yell at me and call me worthless
I won’t be listening
Because I know that I don’t deserve this
[Chorus]
No you’ll never break me down
And you’ll never stop my sound
Cause I’ve finally found my worth, oh
You can’t tell me that I’m less that what I am, oh
Down, down, down
Can’t break me
Down, down, down
Can’t break me
Can’t break me
Can’t break me
Can’t break me down
Can’t break me
Can’t break me
Can’t break me down
[Verse 2]
Does nobody have worth unless
They’re on your pedestal
Or just making you feel like you’re everything
You made me hate my reflection
When I’m a work of art
Karma’s gonna have fun when it comes to you
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m taking back all the time you’ve stolen
Years of sweat and tears
Cause I need to fix this mind you’ve broken, uh uh
You can place all the blame on me but I will
See through all your lies
No feeling hurt and staying silent
[Chorus]
No you’ll never break me down
No you’ll never stop my sound
Cause I’ve finally found my worth, oh
You can’t tell me that I’m less than what I am, oh
Down, down, down
You can't break me
Down, down, down
You can't break me
[Bridge]
And all these years I’ve felt wrong
Now I’ve put it in this song
How you tried to keep me down and silent
I’m gonna work for me not you
You’ll never love the things I do
It’s time to stop being so compliant, oh
You'll never break me down
You'll never break me down
Down, down, down
[Chorus]
No you’ll never break me down
No you’ll never stop my sound
Cause I’ve finally found my worth, oh
You can’t tell me that I’m less that what I am, oh
Down, down, down
Can’t break me
Down, down, down
Can’t break me
Can’t break me
Can’t break me down
Can’t break me
Can’t break me
Can’t break me down
Can’t break me
Can’t break me
Can’t break me down
Can’t break me
Can’t break me
Can’t break me down
