It Doesn’t Mean That I’m Not Strong

Jana Stanfield, Karen Taylor-Good

Here I am a woman
I know it’s hard for you to understand
My way of seeing, being so different
From a man
My way looks softer
But let me offer
The best explanation I can

(Chorus) If I’m afraid, it doesn’t mean that I’m not brave
And if I doubt, it doesn’t mean that I’ve lost faith
And if I fall, it doesn’t mean I can’t go on
And if I cry, it doesn’t mean that I’m not strong

Peaceful warriors
Fight a different kind of fight
Is it really losing, choosing peace over
Being right
So don’t compare me Judge me unfairly
And don’t confuse power with might

(Chorus)

I can weep like there’s no tomorrow
‘Cuz I know what tears are for
They wash away the sorrow to make room for joy and more

(Repeat Chorus)
