Break the Cycle

Who are we to tell someone your not good enough?
And if someone calls you out are you gonna call their bluff?
Or do we run away because we didn't think we were "tough"

Is your voice just an echo?
Mine isn't when I speak I really let my power show..
People hate it through.....
But that is because I wont bow to them,
Wont follow them,
Wont turn into them!

I wont be a puppet with long strings,
People would not run over us, If we showed them what we could bring.
If we would just stop running out of the ring!

Break the cycle,
Will you be a fighter?
Face your Giant,
Look it in the face and say we are not buying it.


Nothing Is impossible,
Anything Is possible.

If we stay in the background,
Then how can anyone hear our voices sound?
No one can,
We might as well stick our heads into the sand!

I am one of the few, who are saying what Im saying.
Now here is the real million dollar question Can You?
