I've been standing where you left me Praying that you'd come and get me But now I've found my second wind Now I found my second skin Well I know what you were thinking You thought you'd watch me fade away When you broke me into pieces But I gave each piece a name One of me is wiser One of me is stronger, one of me is a fighter And there's a thousand faces of me And we're gonna rise up And we're gonna rise up For every time you broke me Well you're gonna face an army, army of me Welcome to my revolution All your walls are breaking down It's time you had a taste of losing Time the table's turned around I see a glimpse of recognition But it's too late ugh it's too late And what you though was your best decision Just became your worst mistake One of me is wiser One of me is stronger One of me is a fighter And there's a thousand faces of me And were gonna rise up And were gonna rise up For every time you broke me Well you're gonna face an army, army of me So how does it feel To know that I beat ya That I can defeat ya Oh how does it feel 'Cause it sure feels sweeter It should be sweeter to me Now that I'm wiser Now that I'm stronger Now that I'm a fighter There's a thousand faces of me And I'm gonna rise up I'm gonna rise up For every time you broke me There's a thousand faces of me And I'm gonna rise up Yeah I'm gonna rise up For every time you broke me You're gonna face an army Army of me
