sitting cloaked in silence
ignoring your arrogance
lost in ambivalence
accepting my circumstance

the sentence I carry within my self
the choice to do unto
lest I be judged
our jury will be the same
therefore I will not blame

I will be strong
I will be strong
will not be dragged along
through what you do

crushed as you plant your negativity
lost inside the grips of self-made insanity
plucking loose the only strings of creativity
ignoring me
you're ignoring me, but ...

I will be strong
I will be strong
will not be dragged along
through what you do

when it all comes down
and we cast our crowns
it's what you choose to lose
it'll all come back to you

I will not shrink, I will not hide my love
and i will not fight I will not hate
lest I be judged
for it'll all come down
it'll all come down, down
it'll all come down
cast your crowns ...

it'll all come down, down
it'll all come down
cast your crowns ...
