Strong In the Current

Standing up Isn't a walk in the park And once you are on your feet Things just get harder But if you have the gut To stand up The you better fight Don't you ever let them push you down Cause once you're standing In this current rushing by You are the hope for people And you just have to be strong And sometime or another You are going to want to quit But you just can't Because the current will carry you away if you step down Sometimes being special sucks But it isn't about who tried and failed It's about who was left standing When the water slowed It's about who had the gut The fight and strength Being the one who didn't loose their footing It's about standing up
