Verse 1:
The higher you build your barriers; the taller I become.
The further you take my rights away; the faster I will run.
You can deny me, you can decide, to turn your face a -way.
No matter, 'cos there's...
Chorus 1:
Something inside, so strong;
I know that I can make it, though you're doing me wrong, so wrong.
You thought that my pride was gone, oh, no;
Something in-side, so strong, oh, oh oh oh oh oh,
Something in-side, so strong.
Verse 2:
The more you refuse to hear my voice,
(Ooh-weh ooh-weh, ooh-weh ooh-weh), the louder I will sing.
You hide behind walls of Jericho,
(Ooh-weh ooh-weh, ooh-weh ooh-weh), your lies come tumbling.
Deny my place in time; you squander wealth that's mine;
My light will shine, so brightly, it will blind you,
Because there's...
Chorus 2:
Something inside, so strong;
I know that I can make it, though you're doing me wrong, so wrong.
You thought that my pride was gone, oh, no;
Something in-side, so strong, oh, oh oh oh oh oh,
Something in-side, so strong.

Well, we know better; just look him in his eyes and say;
We're gonna do it anyway, we're gonna do it anyway.
(n.)
We're gonna do it anyway, we're gonna do it anyway...
