My will is my power
Perfection comes from long hours
It takes strength to go far
It takes courage to show who you are
It takes strength to share a friend's pain
It takes courage to feel your own pain
It takes strength to stand guard
It takes courage to let down your guard
It takes strength to love
It takes courage to be loved
It takes strength to be bullied
It takes courage to conquer it
It takes strength to hide your pain
It takes courage to face it
