Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When oceans of words bring you down
Waves of hate try to make you drown
Pull yourself up, your head up high
Hit them with laughter, kill them with a smile
[Verse 2]
When oceans of words bring you down
Waves of hate try to make you drown
Pull yourself up, your head up high
Hit them with laughter, kill them with a smile
[Verse 3]
I am not what's on my resume, don't wanna shortcut
So if you wanna know who I am, take your time
Because my story goes way back
It hasn't been glitter and gold all my life
Hasn't been easy but don't worry
I'm not about to rant, on the contrary
I'm proud of my history
It made me who I am now
I've learned my lessons hard
Should never be careless or off guard
But only with a stone I control my thick skin
Where nothing can get in, not even those eyes
Try to hypnotize me into sin
When things get rough
I give myself some love, some love
[Verse 4]
When oceans of words bring you down
Waves of hate try to make you drown
Pull yourself up, your head up high
Hit them with laughter, kill them with a smile
[Verse 5]
Ooh, it's been a long time, I left my home but it never left me
I'm still deep down a Javanese woman who's always smiling
But people get jealous and unkind
They talk behind my back to put me down
Well, I really don't know what has gotten into their minds
Must be something I have that they want
'Cause I have the freedom to be who I am
There is no prison in my heart and my mind
I don't ever want to be like a bird that's been born in a cage
And thinks that flying is an outrage
Can't talk to people like that
Their bullets always fall flat
At my feet with the sound of defeat
[Verse 6]
When oceans of words bring you down
Waves of hate try to make you drown
Pull yourself up, your head up high
Hit them with laughter, kill them with a smile
[Verse 7]
All the words that are meant to bruise and
All the fools who think they can win but I'm too strong to lose
Turn your mind to turn out the fire
Don't ever let anyone take over your power
[Verse 8]
When oceans of words bring you down
Waves of hate try to make you drown
Pull yourself up, your head up high
Hit them with laughter, kill them with a smile
[Verse 9]
When oceans of words bring you down
Waves of hate try to make you drown
Pull yourself up, your head up high
Hit them with laughter, kill them with a smile
Hit them with laughter, kill them with a smile
