to this world i’m unimportant

just because i have nothing to give

so you call this your free country

tell me why it cost so much to live

tell me why

this world can turn me down

but i won’t turn away, oh no

i won’t turn around

all my work and endless measures

never seem to get me very far

walk a mile just to move an inch

now even though i’m trying so damn hard

i’m trying so hard

this world can turn me down but i

won’t turn away

and i won’t duck and run, cause

i’m not built that way

when everything is gone there is

nothing there to fear

this world cannot bring me down

no cause i’m already here, oh no!

i am already here,

down on my knees

i am already here, on no, i am

already here

i must have told you a thousand times,

i am not running away

i won’t duck and run

i won’t duck and run

i won’t duck and run

no pass away

this world can turn me down but i

won’t turn away

and i won’t duck and run, cause

i’m not built that way

when everything is gone

there is nothing there to fear

this world cannot bring me down

no cause i’m already here

this world can turn me down

but i won’t turn away

and i won’t duck away

cause i’m not built that way

when everything is gone there

is nothing there to fear

this world cannot bring me down

no cause i’m already here
