Excel where I left off, to go where I've gone,
Defeated in my failure, yeah, but I still stand as one,
Why must I contribute to hate'
Tears burning in my eyes,
See the confusion all around me,
This one's told me so many lies.

Walk is easy; we make it hard,
God give me the strength 'cause I've fallen down. (down so far)

And I'm falling down.

Why must I contribute to hate'
The tears burning in my eyes,
I see so much confusion all around me,
Man, 'cause I've been told me so many lies,
So many lies.

Lies.

A new life now I've begun,
Was lost, but now I'm found,
Familiar in this same song,
No more chains that I've been bound,
Saying the same old thing 'cause I'll continue on,
Take a look around you, man,
You know the battle has been won,
The battle has been won.
