[Verse 1: Jussie Smollett]

Life is like a big merry go round

You're up and then down

Goin' in circles, tryin' to get to where you are

Everybody's been counting you out

But where are they now?

Sittin' in the same ole' place, just faces in the crowd

[Bridge: Jussie Smollett]

Well, we all make mistakes

You might fall on your face

But you gotta get up

[Chorus: Jussie Smollett & Estelle]

I'd rather stand tall

Than live on my knees

Cause I am a conqueror

And I won't accept defeat

Try tellin' me no

One thing about me

Is I am a conqueror

I am a conqueror

Oh

[Verse 2: Estelle]

Got a vision that no one else sees

Lot of dirty work, roll up your sleeves

Remember there's a war out there, so come prepared to fight

You never know where the road will lead you

Not everyone's gonna believe ya'

And even though they're wrong, don't prove 'em right

[Chorus: Estelle & (Jussie Smollett)]

I'd rather stand tall (tall)

Than live on my knees (can't live on my knees)

Cause I am a conqueror

And I won't accept defeat

Try tellin' me no (no)

One thing about me (one thing about me)

Is I am a conqueror

I am a conqueror

Oh

Ooh, ooh ooh

Ooh, ooh ooh, oh

I am a conqueror

[Bridge: Estelle & (Jussie Smollett), Both]

We all make mistakes

You might fall on your face

But you gotta get up (oh)

We all make mistakes

You might fall on your face

Don't ever give up

[Chorus: Jussie Smollett & Estelle]

I'd rather stand tall (whoo, ooo, ooo)

Than live on my knees (than live on my knees)

Cause I am a conqueror (I am a conqueror)

And I won't accept defeat (and I won't accept defeat)

Try tellin' me no (try tellin' me no)

One thing about me (said one thing about me)

Is I am a conqueror (I am a conqueror)

I am a conqueror (yeah)

Oh

Ooh, ooh ooh

Ooh, ooh ooh, oh

I am a conqueror

Oh, no

[Outro: Estelle]

We all make mistakes

You might fall on your face

But I am a conqueror
