I Will Not Be Broken
That was then and this is now
I found my way back here somehow
I knew you'd have to let me go
I told you once, I told you so
Take me down
You can hold me but you can't hold what's within
Hold me round
Push me to the limit, maybe, I may bend
But I know where I'm not going
I will not be broken
I will not be broken
I will not be someone other than who I am
I will fight to make my stand
'Cause what is living if I can't live free?
What is freedom if I can't be me?
Take me down
You can hold me but you can't hold what's within
Hold me round
Push me to the limit, baby, I may bend
But I know where I'm not going
I will not be broken
I will not be broken
I won't let you near it
I will let my spirit fly, fly
High
Oh, take me down
Take me down
You can hold me but you can't hold what's within
Hold me round
Push me to the limit, maybe, I may bend
But we both know I'm not going
I will not be broken
I will not be broken
I will not be broken
I will not be, no, no, baby
Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah-yeah
Ooh-yeah-yeah-yeah
Ooh-yeah-yeah-yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Ooh-ooh
I found my way back here somehow
I knew you'd have to let me go
I told you once, I told you so
Take me down
You can hold me but you can't hold what's within
Hold me round
Push me to the limit, maybe, I may bend
But I know where I'm not going
I will not be broken
I will not be broken
I will not be someone other than who I am
I will fight to make my stand
'Cause what is living if I can't live free?
What is freedom if I can't be me?
Take me down
You can hold me but you can't hold what's within
Hold me round
Push me to the limit, baby, I may bend
But I know where I'm not going
I will not be broken
I will not be broken
I won't let you near it
I will let my spirit fly, fly
High
Oh, take me down
Take me down
You can hold me but you can't hold what's within
Hold me round
Push me to the limit, maybe, I may bend
But we both know I'm not going
I will not be broken
I will not be broken
I will not be broken
I will not be, no, no, baby
Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah-yeah
Ooh-yeah-yeah-yeah
Ooh-yeah-yeah-yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Ooh-ooh
