I’m still standing
No matter what you do
I’m still standing
No matter what you say
I’m still standing,
So don’t try to push me down again
I’m still standing
Because I can take it
But since I can take it,
You still try
Yet I’ll come back, harder, stronger
And you’ll be the one trying to stand

Wow. This has an awesome way of conveying strong determination. I can almost feel the firey steel in the words. Well. Done. 5/5.
