Píseň: Something Inside So Strong

Interpret:
Kenny Rogers
Album:
Something Inside So Strong
The higher you build your barrier
The taller I become
The farther you take my rights away
The faster I will run
You can deny me
You can decide to turn your face away
No matter 'cause there’s


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
There’s something inside so strong
Something inside so strong


The more you refuse to hear my voice 
The louder I will sing
You hide behind Walls of Jericho 
Your lies will come tumbling
Deny my place and time
You squander wealth that's mine
My light will shine
So brightly it will blind you
Because there’s


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
There’s something inside so strong
Something inside so strong


Brothers and sisters
When they insist we’re just not good enough
Well we know better
Just look 'em in the eye and say
We’re gonna do it anyway
we’re gonna do it anyway
We're gonna do it anyway


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
There’s something inside so strong
There’s something inside so strong
There's something inside so strong


Something inside so strong
I know that I can make it
Though you’re doing me wrong so wrong
