Oceans - Anggun

Waves of hate try to make you drown

Pull yourself up, your head up high

Hit them with laughter

Kill them with a smile

When oceans of words bring you down

Waves of hate try to make you drown

Pull yourself up, your head up high

Hit them with laughter

Kill them with a smile

I am not what’s on the resume

Don’t want the shortcuts

So, if you wanna know who I am, take your time

Because my story goes way back

It hasn’t been glitter and gold on my life

Hasn’t been easy but no worry

I’m not about to bend to contrarily

And broad of my history

Meet who I am now

I’ve learned my lessons hard

I should never be careless and off-guard

But only with stone like … thick skin

When nothing can even get in

Not even those eyes try to hypnotize me into sink

When things get rough

I get myself some love, some love

When oceans of words bring you down

Waves of hate try to make you drown

Pull yourself up, your head up high

Hit them with laughter

Kill them with a smile

Oh, it’s been a long time

I left my home but it never left me

I’m still deep down a Javanese woman

Who’s always smiling

But people get jealous and unkind

They took behind my back to put me down

Well, I really don’t know what has gotten into their minds

Might be something I have that they want

So have the freedom to be who I am

There is no prison in my heart and my mind

I don’t ever want to be like that bird

That’s been born in that cage

And think out is an outrage

Can’t talk to people like that

The bullets all fall flat

I’ma feet with the sound of a feet

When oceans of words bring you down

Waves of hate try to make you drown

Pull yourself up, your head up high

Hit them with laughter

Kill them with a smile

All the words they are meant to bruise it

All the fools to think they can win but I’m too strong to lose

Turn your mind to turn out that fire

Don’t ever let anyone to cover your power

When oceans of words bring you down

Waves of hate try to make you drown

Pull yourself up, your head up high

Hit them with laughter

Kill them with a smile

When oceans of words bring you down

Waves of hate try to make you drown

Pull yourself up, your head up high

Hit them with laughter

Kill them with a smile

Hit them with laughter

Kill them with a smile
