Carola Lyrics
Jump to: Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hanged tough, gave it my best
When you tried to run me into the ground
It's rough, no time to rest
No tears now that I'm so much stronger
No fears cause I got what it takes
Give me your best shot
Whatever you have to dish out
Give me your best shot
Don't have to aim so far
This time I'm here to stay
Don't think I'll run away
Nothing's gonna stop what I feel inside
Don't say you know what's right
Searching for the pleasure to hurt my pride
I say this is my life
My heart knows a way to survival
Don't start looking for betrayal
Give me your best shot...
SPOKEN:
How's it gonna be
We're supposed to be free
Put a pen in your hand
And you think you're the man
Don't try to tell me how to run my life
I know it's not all sugar and spice
But love has made me strong
gave me the strength to carry on
I am no judge
But if you're never wrong
you cast the first stone
1 2 3
Give me your best shot
Don't think I'll run away
Give me your best shot
Give me your best shot...
I'll never give up, never give up
I'll be there
I'm the winner, you're the loser
I'm never gonna stay
Don't think I'll run away
Never gonna let no one break me down
I will not allow anyone to crush my spirit or defeat me
Hanged tough, gave it my best
I stayed strong and gave my all
When you tried to run me into the ground
When you attempted to undermine and diminish me
It's rough, no time to rest
It's challenging, I don't have time to take a break
No tears now that I'm so much stronger
I no longer shed tears because I have grown stronger
No fears cause I got what it takes
I have no fears because I possess the necessary qualities and abilities
Give me your best shot
Do your worst, give me your strongest attack
That's what I'm ready for
I am prepared and ready to face it
Whatever you have to dish out
No matter what you have to offer or inflict upon me
Don't have to aim so far
You don't need to put in excessive effort or go to great lengths
This time I'm here to stay
I am determined to be present and committed this time
Don't think I'll run away
Do not assume that I will flee or retreat
Nothing's gonna stop what I feel inside
Nothing can hinder or impede my inner emotions
Don't say you know what's right
Do not claim to know what is correct or best for me
Searching for the pleasure to hurt my pride
Looking for satisfaction in attempting to damage my self-esteem
I say this is my life
I declare that this life is mine and under my control
My heart knows a way to survival
My emotions guide me on a path toward survival
Don't start looking for betrayal
Do not begin searching for signs of betrayal from me
Give me your best shot...
Continue to give me your strongest attack
How's it gonna be
What will the situation be like?
We're supposed to be free
We are meant to have freedom
Put a pen in your hand
Hold a pen in your hand
And you think you're the man
And you believe yourself to be superior
Don't try to tell me how to run my life
Do not attempt to dictate or control my life choices
I know it's not all sugar and spice
I am aware that life is not always easy and pleasant
But love has made me strong
Love has empowered me and given me strength
Gave me the strength to carry on
Provided me with the resilience to continue
I am no judge
I do not possess the authority to pass judgment
But if you're never wrong
However, if you never make mistakes
You cast the first stone
You should be the first to criticize or accuse
1 2 3
Counting sequentially
Give me your best shot
Do your worst, give me your strongest attack
Don't think I'll run away
Do not assume that I will flee or retreat
Give me your best shot
Do your worst, give me your strongest attack
I'll never give up, never give up
I will persist and never surrender
I'll be there
I will always be present and available
I'm the winner, you're the loser
I am victorious, while you are defeated
I'm never gonna stay
I will never remain stagnant or stagnant
Don't think I'll run away
Do not assume that I will flee or retreat
