Stronger

Hello there before you read the poem/song that I'm about to post I want you to know why I
wrote. I have the disability called Cerebal Palsy. Nothing makes me angrier that people
giving me pity or pointing out or exploiting my weakness. That is what this song is about.

Stronger

It's time that I let something out
If I don't I may just shout
You think my handicap is a weakness
Fine by me 
I could care less
But lets get one thing straight
When it comes down do it 
I don't care what you think

I'm have my own self respect
I don't want your pity 
I'll shove it right back in your face
Because I know I have what it takes
I'm full of pride
So why should I hide?
What doesn't kill me makes me stronger
It just gives me the strength to last longer

I don't want to hear your talk
Just shut your mouth
Yeah I know the way I walk
So what?
I'm glad I'm this way
I'm thankful for it
Every single day

I'm have my own self respect
I don't want your pity 
I'll shove it right back in your face
Because I know I have what it takes
I'm full of pride
So why should I hide?
What doesn't kill me makes me stronger
It just gives me the strength to last longer

Some try to exploit this weakness of mine
It's only a weakness if I think in that state of mind
Too bad for you!
I have and never will think that way
So get over it
Because I'm going to win in the end
And You'll be the one to lose

I'm have my own self respect
I don't want your pity 
I'll shove it right back in your face
Because I know I have what it takes
I'm full of pride
So why should I hide?
What doesn't kill me makes me stronger
It just gives me the strength to last longer

I'm grateful for the way I am
So don't give me your pity
I'll shove it right back in your face
I consider myself lucky
It makes me all I can be
