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
