Laugh in My Face

[Verse 1]
You said I’d never get close enough
To reach for these heights
You told me I need to grow up
Get these dreams off my mind

Look at where I’m standing now
And look at where you are
Ain’t that a surprise?
You know, the times are changing now
And I’m going on
I am gonna rise

[Pre-Chorus]
And now you’re coming on to me
You tell me what you said was mean
But you did never really mean to hurt me
I’d known that’s what you were to say
And I guess it’s true in a way
But I won’t forget, no I won’t forget

[Chorus]
Ah-ah-ah
You used to laugh in my face all the time
Ah-ah-ah
You used to tell me that I can’t be right
Ah-ah-ah
You used to laugh in my face all the time
Ah-ah-ah
You used to laugh in my face
Yeah you laughed in my face

[Verse 2]
You told me I was no one
But I kept on trying
My goals still make me go on
Chasing these dreams all the time

Look at where I’m standing now
And look at where you are
Ain’t that a surprise?
You know, the times are changing now
And I’m going on
I am gonna rise

[Pre-Chorus]
And now you’re coming on to me
You tell me what you said was mean
But you did never really mean to hurt me
I’d known that’s what you were to say
And I guess it’s true in a way
But I won’t forget, no I won’t forget

[Chorus]
Ah-ah-ah
You used to laugh in my face all the time
Ah-ah-ah
You used to tell me that I can’t be right
Ah-ah-ah
You used to laugh in my face all the time
Ah-ah-ah
You used to laugh in my face
Yeah you laughed in my face

[Bridge]
(You said I never get close enough)
Getting closer now, getting closer now
Getting closer now

You said I never get close enough
But now I can reach for these heights
You told me I need to grow up
But I’ll never get this off of my mind

[Chorus]
Ah-ah-ah
You used to laugh in my face all the time
(You used to laugh in my face)
Ah-ah-ah
You used to tell me that I can’t be right
(Getting closer now)
Ah-ah-ah
You used to laugh in my face all the time
(Getting closer now)
Ah-ah-ah
You used to laugh in my face
Yeah you laughed in my face
Oh
