Bend
You can bend you don't have to fall
Keep your head up
When you knees threaten to buckle
Causing you to stagger
In face of adversity
Crush that desire to surrender to its power
Show your strength, pushing on
Reveal how strong your will is
When everything in life is
Going wrong
Shove disappointments to the side,
We all want a taste of
Apple pie
Let not negative thoughts prevail, keeping you
Tied to a lie
Failure is a state of mind
Where does your strength hail from?
Somewhere deep in your soul
You can bend you don't have to fall
You can stumble and not trip
You can listen to the negative talk or tune it out
Unless the negativity is standing in your shoes
They don't know your journey, understand your plight
Comprehend we all make mistakes
You can bend you don't have to fall
