Can't Take That Away

They can say anything they
Want to say
Try to bring me down
But I will not allow
Anyone to succeed
Hanging clouds over me
And they can't try hard to make me feel
That I don't matter at all
But I refuse to falter
In what I believe
Or lose faith in my dreams

Relena could hear them talking about her. They thought that she was a spoiled,pampered, girl who knew nothing about the real life and just believed in her idealistic fantasies. But they were wrong. She knew about the real life. Relena knew what people said about her. Especially the Gundam Pilots. They thought that she was still obsessed with Heero. But to Relena, he was just a crush, a fling. But still, Duo still teased her.

'Cause there's a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they can't take that away from me
From me

She used to cry because no one understood her. No one loved her, and the ones who did were dead, like her foster father.

They can do anything they want to you
If you let them in
But they won't ever win
If you cling to your pride
And just push them aside
See
I have learned there's an inner
Peace I own
Something in my soul
That they cannot possess
So I won't be afraid
And the darkness will fade

When she was the Queen of the World, people just started making fun of her more. She knew it. And the people who were nice to her wanted the popularity and attention.

'Cause there's a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they can't take that away from me

But no matter how much people talked about her and teased her, she always stayed strong. No matter what, she still stood in front of crowds and said the words that she grew up to believe in. What she was taught.

No
They can't take this
Precious love
I'll always have inside me
Certainly the Lord will guide me
Where I need to go

Even though she was threatened,she never once gave up. In her heart, she kept the love of her foster father in her. Depending on her to hold up his ideals, and lead the life and world he tried so hard to do himself.

They can't say anything they want to say
Try to break me down
But I won't face the ground
I will rise steadily
Sailing out of their reach

Even when the Gundam Pilots are watching her every move with a fake smile plastered over their faces, she knew what they were thinking. They were thinking about her being weak, stupid, spoiled,selfish, and just caught up in her own dreams, not thinking of anyone else but her.

Oh Lord
They do try hard to make me feel
That I don't matter at all
But I refuse to falter
In what I believe
Or lose faith in my dreams

So when she got her bags and a letter addressed to them, she kept in mind that no one could break her, because she had her own shield. And to keep it strong, she had to move on.

'Cause there's a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they can't take that away from me
From me
