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 the smile

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 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 all 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 a stone that can .... a thick skin
When nothing can even get in
Not even those eyes try to hypnotize me into sink
Ha! When things get rough
I get myself some love, some love

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 the smile

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 is 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 always fall flat
I'm a ...... with the sound of the beat

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 the smile

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

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 the smile

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 the smile

Hit them with laughter
Kill them with the smile
