We will be strong
Tough metal resisting fire
We will be strong
Bold brass after the kiln
We will be strong
Diamond from earthly crust
We will pluck up brawn
And stash in the mantle
Bricks of red and oils of gold
Signify our wealth.
We will remain strong
In all manner weather
Promiscuous strength fighting off dour
Serene wisdom banishing fear
Voracious pride concealing weakness
We will insist on might
To tear down the walls
Psychological strength complimenting mettle
Bold courage affording skill
Saintly hope supplementing grace.
If we are not strong
No one will respect us
No one will smile at us
No one will befriend us
Let us be strong
Selfless debt to ego brawn.
