Courage

I have something that you don't
A little courage that you won't
You may push me to the ground
Turn my life around
You may push me until I fall
I may not want to, but I get up after all
I may be hurt and I may be bruised
Please don't be discouraged or confused
Rumours spread and rumours go
Every time, you hurt me, I grow
I'll forgive you, let me be
Let's be friends and you will see
I will choose
I will never lose
