Lyrics: Gia Koka

Note: This is the English version of “Zemrën n’dorë”.

We stand eye to eye
You try and set a fire
Just to watch me burn
It’s like you don’t know

That I will survive
Learned how to stay alive
Come and throw your flames
‘Cause it’s all your vain, oh-oh

Even if I fall, I’m gon’ get up
I’ll be standing tall, proud, with my head up
Go ‘head and give your best shot

I won’t go down, I’ll never break
Like a titan I’ll be brave
Toni-i-i-ight
I’ll ri-i-ise

I won’t give up, fight till the end
Every tear’s gonna ricochet
I ri-i-i-ise, rise
I’m a titan in disguise

I bet you thought that I would crumble, but I won’t
You thought I wouldn’t make it out here on my own
You thought you’d see me broken, I’m going strong
Still going strong

Got an armor ’round my heart, it’s unbreakable
Got my feet on the ground, I’m unshakable
And if you think I won’t survive, then you’re so wrong
You’re so wrong

I won’t go down, I’ll never break
Like a titan I’ll be brave
Toni-i-i-ight
I’ll ri-i-ise

I won’t give up, fight till the end
Every tear’s gonna ricochet
I ri-i-i-ise, rise
I’m a titan in disguise

(Ri-i-i-ise)
(Ri-i-i-ise)
(Ri-i-i-i-ise)

I won’t go down, I’ll never break
Like a titan I’ll be brave
Toni-i-i-ight
I’ll ri-i-ise

I won’t give up, fight till the end
Every tear’s gonna ricochet
I ri-i-i-ise, rise
I’m a titan in disguise

(Ri-i-i-ise)
(Ri-i-i-ise)
(Ri-i-i-i-ise)
I’m a titan in disguise

(Ri-i-i-ise)
(Ri-i-i-ise)
(Ri-i-i-i-ise)
I’m a titan in disguise
