You can’t bring me down
Already had my life turned upside down
I ride a downward spiral round and round
But I keep flying, I keep fighting
You won’t ever bring me down

I’m good, I’m fine, this life, divine
No hate, no shame, no one to blame
You might disguise, your life with lies
I won’t chastise

Even if you think you can bring me down
Already had my life turned upside down
I’m riding down the spiral round and round
But I keep flying, I keep fighting
You won’t ever bring me down, down, down, down, down!
You won’t ever bring me down, down, down, down, down!
You won’t ever bring me

I can’t escape from your disdain
Your heart, your pain, your drama is lame
Why can’t you find some peace inside
I won’t chastise

Even if you think you can bring me down
Already had my life turned upside down
I’m riding down the spiral round and round
But I keep flying, I keep fighting
You won’t ever bring me down, down, down, down, down!
You won’t ever bring me down, down, down, down, down!
You won’t ever bring me

Hater, hater, hater
Hater, hater, hater

I’m good, I’m fine this life’s divine
No hate, no shame, no one to blame
Why can’t you find some peace inside?
Hater hater hater hater hater

You can’t bring me down
Already have my life turned upside down
I’m riding down the spiral round and round
But I keep flying, I keep fighting
You won’t ever bring me down
Hater hater hater hater hater
You won’t ever bring me down
Hater hater hater hater hater
You won’t ever bring me down
Hater hater hater hater hater
'Cause I keep flying, I keep fighting

You won’t ever bring me down, down, down, down, down!
You won’t ever bring me down, down, down, down, down!
You won’t ever bring me down, down, down, down, down!
You won’t ever bring me down, down, down, down, down!
You won’t ever bring me down
