In the halls of younger times, where we used to roam
I saw you shining, thought you were my home
With a heart full of hope, I asked you on a date
Little did I know it was all just a charade
You played the jester with your words like knives
Laughing at my expense, tearing down my life
But you can't keep me down, no, I won't let you win
I'll rise above the hatred, let my light begin
You thought you had it all, chasing popularity
But now the table's turned, I'm stronger than you see
I won't let your mockery define who I am
I'll rise above the pain, show the world I'm the bigger man
You thought you had it all, chasing popularity
But now the table's turned, I'm stronger than you see
I won't let your mockery define who I am
I'll rise above the pain, show the world I'm the bigger man
You thought you had it all, chasing popularity
But now the table's turned, I'm stronger than you see
I won't let your mockery define who I am
I'll rise above the pain, show the world I'm the bigger man
I'll rise above the pain, find who I am
Find who I else to read, I hope
With a heart full of hope, I asked you on a date
Little did I know, it was all just a charade
You played the jester with your words like knives
Laughing at my expense, tearing down my life
But you can't keep me down, no I won't let you win
I'll rise above the hatred
You thought you had it all, chasing popularity
But now the table's turned, I'm stronger than you see
I won't let your mockery define who I am
I'll rise above the pain, show the world I'm the bigger man
You thought you had it all, chasing popularity
But now the table's turned, I'm stronger than you see
I won't let your mockery define who I am
In the halls of young of hope, I asked you on a date
With a heart full of hope, I asked you on a date
Little did I know, it was all just a charade
You played the jester with your words like knives
Laughing at my expense, tearing down my life
But you can't keep me down, no I won't let you win
I'll rise above the hatred
Let, let, let life begin
I'll rise above the hatred, let my life be prepared
I won't let your mockery define who I am
I'll rise above the pain, show the world I'm the bigger man
Show the world I'm the bigger man
You'll find who I am
I'll rise above the hatred
Show the world you see
I won't let your mockery define who I am
I'll rise above the pain, show the world I'm the bigger man
