Lyrics
Unbreakable
©2007 Kim Ilene McDaniel (BMI) & Larry Seger
VERSE 1
You can break my body
You can break my mind
You can take everything I own
You can beat me every time
But you cannot touch my soul
No you cannot touch my soul
CHORUS
'Cause I'm unbreakable
Unshakeable
The prize I have inside is untakeable
Yeah I'm unbreakable
Unshakeable
The prize I have inside is untakeable
Yeah I'm unbreakable
VERSE 2
You can break my family
You can break my heart
You can take everyone I love
You can tear my world apart
But you cannot touch my soul
No you cannot touch my soul
CHORUS
'Cause I'm unbreakable
Unshakeable
The prize I have inside is untakeable
Yeah I'm unbreakable
Unshakeable
The prize I have inside is untakeable
Yeah I'm unbreakable
BRIDGE -- Christian
Not height nor depth nor anything in between
Can keep me from the Savior of my soul
Not war nor peace nor painful suffering
Can keep me from the One Who made me whole
BRIDGE -- Secular / crossover
The worth I have inside is buried deep
Farther than the shallow dare to go
I've got a lot of faith, I made the leap
I had to plant the seed to make it grow
CHORUS
'Cause I'm unbreakable
Unshakeable
The prize I have inside is untakeable
Yeah I'm unbreakable
Unshakeable
The prize I have inside is untakeable
Yeah I'm unbreakable
