Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Life is like a big merry-go-round You're up and then down Going in circles tryin' to get to where you are Everybody's been cutting you out But where are they now? Sitting in the same old place Just faces in the crowd We all make mistakes You might fall on your face But you gotta get up! I'd rather stand tall Than live on my knees 'Cause I'm a conqueror And I won't accept defeat Try telling me no One thing about me Is I'm a conqueror I am a conqueror Ooh oh Got a vision that no one else sees Lot of dirty work, roll up your sleeves Remember there's a war out there So come prepared to fight! You never know where the road leads ya Not everyone's gonna believe ya And even though they're wrong, Don't prove 'em right I'd rather stand tall Than live on my knees (Can't live on my knees) 'Cause I'm a conqueror And I won't accept defeat Try telling me no One thing about me Is I'm a conqueror I am a conqueror Oh oh (Ooh ooh) I am a conqueror We all make mistakes You might fall on your face But you gotta get up! We all make mistakes You might fall on your face Don't ever give up! I'd rather stand tall Than live on my knees 'Cause I'm a conqueror And I won't accept defeat Try telling me no One thing about me Is I am a conqueror I am a conqueror Oh oh I am a conqueror, oh no We all make mistakes You might fall on your face But I am a conqueror
