Strength

It's the thought that keeps them awake,

The horror they live throughout the day

The words that kept them away

But it hurt more than it should

The times they said

“You’re Next”

And you were waiting for them to come,

Sitting there with no place to go

No place to feel safe until I'm gone

Am I really a threat or is it you who are afraid

The truth is what lies inside

Your fear is what lies beneath your strength

You are strong

Fight for yourself and never be taken over

You are your life

We are the world

Life is what god gave you

You have a reason for who you are today,

For what you stand for

For what you are

Nobody can take that away but you

If you are willing to stand,

To fight for something not meant to be fought for,

You are strong,

Stronger than anyone.
