"Another Way to be Strong" - G.A. 5/10/07
You are ready, and you’re settled in for the fight
You’ve got your feet set strong and your fists clenched tight
But there’s another way to be strong
There is another way to be strong
You’ve taken some punches, down through the years
I know these are words that you don’t want to hear
But there’s another way to be strong
There is another way to be strong
You could open up your hands give up your plans and just let everything go
You could open up your eyes and watch them fly until they lift off of your soul
You could open up your mouth and let it shout a brand new song
About another way to be strong
There are voices, they are ringing in your ears
They would call it weakness and they would call it fear
But in your heart you know they are wrong
There is another way to be strong
You could open up your hands give up your plans and just let everything go
You could open up your eyes and watch them fly until they lift off of your soul
You could open up your mouth and let it shout a brand new song
About another way to be strong
We all know there will be times
When the waters rise up high
Then come crashing down around
Our best defenses
And we can flail and we can fight
And we can muster all our might
And take a swing in hopes that
Something out there flinches
Or we can give up all this ground
We can lay our weapons down
We can lift our heads to sing along
It is another way to be strong
Let us open up our hands give up our plans and just let everything go
Let us open up our eyes and watch ‘em fly until they lift off of our souls
Let us open up our mouths and let it shout our brand new song
About another way to be strong
You are ready, and you’re settled in for the fight
You’ve got your feet set strong and your fists clenched tight
But there’s another way to be strong
There is another way to be strong
You’ve taken some punches, down through the years
I know these are words that you don’t want to hear
But there’s another way to be strong
There is another way to be strong
You could open up your hands give up your plans and just let everything go
You could open up your eyes and watch them fly until they lift off of your soul
You could open up your mouth and let it shout a brand new song
About another way to be strong
There are voices, they are ringing in your ears
They would call it weakness and they would call it fear
But in your heart you know they are wrong
There is another way to be strong
You could open up your hands give up your plans and just let everything go
