Swimming against the current, it's been this way from day one
|
Always an uphill battle, we never got a single handout from anyone
|
From anyone
|
So tell me, if we were "damaged goods," then what does that make you?
|
As far as I'm concerned, you're nothing more than just a worthless suit
|
|
We are the rose
|
We are the rose that grew from the crack in the concrete
|
I never doubted for a second, even when you left us on our own
|
Don't you wish you would have known?
|
How does it feel now that you're in the backseat?
|
I guess you should have had a little more faith in me
|
|
Now I won't take all the credit, but you sure don't deserve an ounce
|
So go and talk the talk while we walk the walk
|
There's no way that you can stop us now
|
|
We are the rose
|
We are the rose that grew from the crack in the concrete
|
I never doubted for a second, even when you left us on our own
|
Don't you wish you would have known?
|
How does it feel now that you're in the backseat?
|
I guess you should have had a little more faith in me
|
|
You can lie
|
You can cheat your way through life
|
You can take what you don't deserve until you die
|
You can lie
|
You can cheat your way through life
|
You can take what you don't deserve until you die
|
You can lie
|
You can cheat your way through life
|
|
You can take what you don't deserve until you die
|
But you can never take away our pride
|
Because when they said we couldn't, we did
|
One day you'll be forgotten
|
When they said we couldn't, we did
|
They'll remember our name forever
|
Because when they said we couldn't, we did
|
|
I forgive you
|
It's not your fault you couldn't see what I saw
|
You never were to care about the underdog
|
|
We are the rose
|
We are the rose that grew from the crack in the concrete
|
I never doubted for a second, even when you left us on our own
|
Don't you wish you would have known?
|
How does it feel now that you're in the backseat?
|
I guess you should have had a little more faith in me
|
|
We are the rose
|
We are the rose that grew from the crack in the concrete
|
I never doubted for a second, even when you left us on our own
|
You left us on our own
|
I guess you should have had a little more faith in me
