Anggun - Oceans Lyrics

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

I am not what's on my 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 don't worry
I'm not about to rant on the contrary and brought up my history
Meet who I am now
I've learned my lessons hard
Should never be careless and off-guard
But only with a storm I confirm that thick skin
When nothing can get in
Not even those eyes try to hipnotize 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 the bird that's been born in that cage and think out is an outrage
Can't talk to people like that
The bullets always fall flat
I'mma fit
With the sound of defeat

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 that I 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
