I stand by my convictions and I抦 living by my word So quick to condemn me and say I抦 caught up in the past Holding on to something that was never meant to last Not content with good enough to make it through this world And I抦 trying to make things better, so just tell me where I抦 wrong Maybe I see the world In a different kind of light I refuse to turn away When I can stand and fight Maybe I see the world In a different kind of light I抦 still holding on To the hope I have inside There抯 nothing left worth fighting for, but there抯 something everyday I don抰 see through jaded eyes, cause I抦 still fighting for a change Growing up not giving in, one day at a time And through the darkest hours, my eyes stay open wide NEVER GIVE IN NEVER BACK DOWN
