I've been up

And I've been down

But everything is just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine it's true

Tougher skin?

Guess again

But not because I don't try, try, try, try, I always do

And I don't want nobody

Telling me I'm nobody



I've got a revelation

I'm a new creation, baby

The world can't bring me down



You think what?

Why the rut?

'Cause if you're towing the line, line, line, those days are through



You know it says it right here

Right here

Take a good look at this

Intent

No, you're no accident

Why let life get you confused



Don't let anybody

Tell you you're nobody



I've got a revelation

You're a new creation, baby

The world can't bring you down

And I've got a revelation

You've been elevated, baby

The world can't bring you down



Big screen tells ya 'You gotta look this way

You got no beauty beyond what you display'

But don't they get it it's what's inside you

So take your place and don't ever hid your face



All those fashion victims

Seem so aggravated

Going with the flow is

Very over-rated



I've got a revelation

You're a new creation, baby

The world can't bring you down

I've got a revelation

You've been elevated, baby

The world can't bring you down

The world can't bring you down

The world can't bring you down

The world can't bring you down

The world can't bring you down
