Anggun - Oceans lyrics

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 k** them with the smile I am not what’s on the resume Don’t want the shortcuts So if you wanna know who i am Take your time Because my story goes way back It hasn’t been glitter and gold on my life Hasn’t been easy but no worry I’m not about to bend to contrarily and broad of my history Meet who i am now I’ve learned my lessons hard I should never be careless and off-guard But only with stone like … thick skin When nothing can even get in Not even those eyes try to hipnotize me into sink When things get rough I get myself some love, some love Oh 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 took behind my back to put me down Well i really don’t know what has gotten into their minds Might be something i have that they want So 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 that bird that’s been born in that cage and think out is an outrage Can’t talk to people like that The bullets all fall flat I’mma feet with the sound of a feet All the words they are meant to bruise it All the fools to think they can win but i’m too strong to lose Turn your mind to turn out that fire Don’t ever let anyone to cover your power
