Inside myself there is a destiny
Something controlled by no other power just me
I sit in judgment of what my life will be
I am my own refuge
Because no one else can truly save me
They tried to knock me down
Down to a pebble
I can't let that happen to me
I call for no self-sacrifice
No self, for no self
I am my own refuge now
I am my own refuge now
I am my own refuge now
I am my own refuge now
I'm in control of my free will
Something you can never take away from me
Persuasive chains won't snatch me
I refuse to destroy my mind
I sit in judgment all by myself
Nobody else - all by myself
