You're trying to peel away
my thick skin
like it's an orange peel
I don't know exactly
what you're trying to steal
But I've survived
every single one of your hits
I've always come out stronger on the other side

I don't know exactly
what you think I'm
letting you get away with
I'm not hollow, hollow
as hollow as I seem
There's a fighter in me
stronger than a rifle
You're just a child

You seem so interested
in making me feel inferior
but I'm not invested
and I know my interior.
