I’ve battled a lion, a priest, a ghost

I’ve treaded water with my fingers crossed

I’ve conquered a mountain, a village, a storm

Now I’m strong, and I won’t fall

So Thank you, Thank you

For throwing me stones

Thank you, and Thank you

For I once was,

For then I’ll be again and again

So Thank you

I’ve witnessed an earthquake, a flood, a storm

Everything to guide me away from my goals

I’ve asked for a coffin, a beating, a bone

Am I the only one?

The only one?

But I’ve given a blessing, a diamond, a rose

To those in need who suffer the most

‘Cause I’ve earned a smile, a spirit, a soul

Now I know, and now I’m whole

So Thank you, Thank you

For throwing me stones

Thank you, and Thank you

For I once was,

For then I’ll be again and again

So Thank you
