    All the life she has seen
    All the meaner side of me
    They took away the prophet's dream
    For a profit on the street
    Now she's stronger than you know
    A heart of steel starts to grow
    All his life he's been told
    He'll be nothing when he's old
    All the kicks and all the blows
    He won't ever let it show
    'Cause he's stronger than you know
    A heart of steel starts to grow
    When you've been fighting for it all your life
    You've been struggling to make things right
    That's how a superhero learns to fly
    Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power
    When you've fighting for it all your life
    You've been working every day and night
    That's how a superhero learns to fly
    Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power
    Oh-oh, oh, oh
    Oh-oh, oh, oh
    All the hurt, all the lies
    All the tears that they cry
    When the moment is just right
    You see fire in their eyes
    'Cause he's stronger than you know
    A heart of steel starts to grow
    When you've been fighting for it all your life
    You've been struggling to make things right
    That's how a superhero learns to fly
    Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power
    When you've fighting for it all your life
    You've been working every day and night
    That's how a superhero learns to fly
    Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power (power, power, power, power, power)
    Every day, every hour turn the pain into power
    (Power, power, power, power)
    Every day, every hour turn the pain into power
    She's got lions in her heart
    A fire in her soul he's a got a beast
    In his belly that's so hard to control
    'Cause they've taken too much hits, taking blow by blow
    Now light a match, stand back, watch them explode
    She's got lions in her heart
    A fire in her soul he's a got a beast
    In his belly that's so hard to control
    'Cause they've taken too much hits, taking blow by blow
    Now light a match, stand back, watch them explode
    When you've been fighting for it all your life
    You've been struggling to make things right
    That's a how a superhero learns to fly
    Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power
    When you've fighting for it all your life
    You've been working every day and night
    That's a how a superhero learns to fly
    Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power (power, power, power, power, power)
    Oh, yes (power, power, power, power)
    Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power
    (Power, power, power, power) Ooh, yeah
    Whoa (power, power, power, power)
    Every day, every hour, turn the pain into power
    When you've been fighting for it all your life
    You've been struggling to make things right
    That's how a superhero learns to fly
