Swimming against the current, its been this way from day one Always an uphill battle, we never got a single handout from anyone, from anyone So tell me, if we were damaged goods, then what does that make you? As far as Im concerned, youre nothing more than just a worthless suit We are the rose We are the rose We are the rose that grew from the crack in the concrete I never doubted for a second even when you left us on our own Dont you wish you would have known? How does it feel now that youre in the back seat? I guess you should have had a little more faith in me Now I wont take all the credit, but you sure dont deserve an ounce So go talk the talk while we walk the walk Theres no way that you can stop us now! We are the rose We are the rose We are the rose that grew from the crack in the concrete I never doubted for a second even when you left us on our own Dont you wish you would have known? How does it feel now that youre in the back seat? I guess you should have had a little more faith in me You can lie You can cheat your way through life You can take what you dont deserve until you die You can lie You can cheat your way through life You can take what you dont deserve until you die You can lie You can cheat your way through life You can take what you dont deserve until you die, but you can never take away our pride Because when they said we couldnt WE DID! One day youll be forgotten When they said we couldnt WE DID! Theyll remember our name forever, because when they said we couldnt WE DID! I forgive you Its not your fault you couldnt see what I saw You never were to care about the underdog We are the rose We are the rose that grew from the crack in the concrete I never doubted for a second even when you left us on our own Dont you wish you would have known? How does it feel now that youre in the back seat? I guess you should have had a little more faith in me We are the rose We are the rose that grew from the crack in the concrete I never doubted for a second even when you left us on our own You left us on our own! I guess you should have had a little more faith in me
