Giant - Melissa Etheridge

You tried to hold us down

You tried to hold us back

You tried to make us wrong

You tried to make us crack

You wanted to see us cry

You wanted to see us leave

You didn’t count on the tide

You didn’t count on the pride

You didn’t count on me

I am a giant

And you will not make me fall

And you will not make me crawl

I am a giant

And I’m not alone

Winds of change have blown

And walls come tumbling down

And I learned from my mistakes

Pick myself up of the floor

I have learned just what it takes

Now I am stronger than before

And we are standing side by side

We are determined now to win

We come too far

And we’ve got the scares

And we are never going back into the shadows again

I am a giant

And you will not make me fall

And you will not make me crawl

I am a giant

And I’m not alone

Winds of change have blown

How the walls come tumbling down
