Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I came back, I came back
There′s nothing for you here they'd say
I came back, I came back
Stronger
Stronger
Stronger than I ever was before
I′m stronger
Stronger
Stronger than I ever was before
They wrote me off they turned me away but
I came back, I came back
I made my stand I made my way
I came back, I came back
Stronger
Stronger
Stronger than I ever was before
I'm stronger
Stronger
Stronger than I ever was before
I'll get knocked down it′ll happen again but,
I′ll come back I'll come back
I′m always stronger than I was then
I'll come back I′ll be back
Stronger
Stronger
Stronger than I ever was before
I'm stronger
Stronger
Stronger than I ever was before
Stronger
Stronger
Stronger than I ever was before
I′m stronger
Stronger
Stronger than I ever was before
The lyrics talk about the strength that comes from adversity. It begins by describing a time when the singer was knocked down and afraid. Despite the people around them telling the singer that there was nothing for them there, the singer came back. The chorus repeats the sentiment that the singer is now stronger than they ever were before. This strength comes from the experiences they have gone through.
The second verse expands on this idea, with the singer being written off and turned away. However, they made their stand and came back. The repetition of "I came back" reinforces the message of resilience and determination. The following chorus is repeated twice more, with the singer acknowledging that they will be knocked down again, but they will always come back stronger.
The lyrics provide an uplifting message about overcoming obstacles and using them as a source of strength. The song encourages listeners to persevere through tough times, with the knowledge that they will emerge stronger on the other side.
