Invincible

I will not be bent, and I will not break. 
No weapon or word will pierce through my skin. 
Voices and swords cannot make mountains quake. 
I'll remain firm as that mountain within. 
None will diminish the hope that I hold, 
Crush down my spirit, or darken my soul. 
I am unchanging not cast in their mold. 
Bedrock unbreaking, I still remain whole. 
Let hatred strike me until it goes dull.
Eternal, my soul is INVINCIBLE.
