You tell me that I’m strong; the bravest person that you know
And I know it’s just my journey
That makes you think it’s so
Dragged along a path I wish I didn’t have to see
It’s not the one I chose – the path selected me
You tell me I’m courageous; that my courage gives you hope
And I know it’s just my journey
That makes you think it’s so
When every day’s a struggle and it’s never really gone
Yet giving up is just as hard as going on
You tell me I inspire; a role model for all
And I know it’s just my journey
That makes you think it’s so
Facing my adversity is all I try to do
Doing what I have to, just to get me through
I don’t want to be the bravest or the strongest that you know
I’m not trying to inspire
My courage comes and goes
You speak your words with love and I know they’re meant to heal
But these attributes you see in me I simply cannot feel
