resilient lyrics – katy perry

i know theres gotta be rain
if i want the rainbows
and i know the higher i climb
the harder the wind blows

yeah i’ve gone to sleep night
after night punching a pillow
but do you know the darker the night
the brighter the stars glow

‘cause i am resilient
a full flower moment
won’t let the concrete hold me back

oh no, i am resilient
born to be brilliant
you’ll see me grow right through
the cracks
yeah ‘cause you’re gonna watch this
flower grow
right through the cracks

i’ve got to shed all the skin
if i want the distance
let the sun in, pull out the weeds
and focus my vision

‘cause theres no mistakes
just bends and breaks and friction
but do you know the hotter the fire
the purer the gold is?

‘cause i am resilient
a full flower moment
won’t let the concrete hold me back

oh yeah, i am resilient
born to be brilliant
i’m gonna grow right through the cracks
oh ho

‘cause i died every winter
but survived all the weather
look at me now, look at me now
i’m in full bloom, yeah

they tried to poison the water
but i was a little stronger
look at me now, look at me now
light up the room, oh yeah

‘cause i am resilient
a full flower moment
won’t let the concrete hold me back
no

oh, i am resilient
born to be brilliant
i’m gonna grow right through the cracks
oh you’re gonna watch this flower grow
right through the cracks
