Hello? Can you hear me out there? Alright.
Let me be the first one to tell you,
Be yourself, Don’t ever fall down, Speak up, Shout out
for what you believe in
let everybody know who you are
and I promise you’ll go very far
Getting ready for battle and
He’s trying to hold his ground
His heart is racing
Numb with fear and doubt
The reign of bullets begin
as missiles streak the sky
Everything’s about to change
in the blink of an eye
Oh, reach a little further
and you will find
that you can walk the distance
discover bravery inside
outrun the resistance,
keep on persisting
and it will be alright
Oh, reach a little further
They watch with pity
as her pain takes its toll
she takes a deep slow breath
she’s longing to feel whole
Despite uplifting words
They can’t help anymore
She’s fought for so long
She feels like closing door
Learn how to stand up, learn how to fight
whether you’re wrong or right
Think like a bird or a butterfly ready to take flight
Finally, you need to learn
stand up be strong be heard
ready to fight
ready to lead
High and tall you’ve got to exceed
Break the barriers, jump the hurdles, run the distance,
take off when you hear that startin’ gun, don’t wait for resistance
Be brave and don’t let nobody ever burst your fire
Speak what’s on your mind then, learn how to take steps higher
Everyday, Relentlessly
They try to break him down (don’t let ‘em get ya)
their laughter echoes
as they push him down
He’s trying to speak up,
to break through the walls
no matter how hard he tries
no one can hear his calls (come on, come on)
