Stand and Deal

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 2 months ago 2 min read

Verse 1

When the weight of the world tries to pull you down,

And the shadows whisper, trying to steal your crown.

Remember who you are, don’t let fear take the lead,

You’ve got the strength inside you; you’ll rise, you’ll succeed.

Pre-Chorus

No more playing victim, it's time to break free,

With every step you take, let your spirit be.

Pointing fingers won’t take you far,

You’re meant to shine, to light up the dark.

Chorus

So stand and deal, face the storms that come,

With courage in your heart, you’ll never succumb.

You’re a warrior, fierce and bright,

You’ll rise from the ashes, embracing the light.

Strong women don’t falter, they know their worth,

Be that woman, show the world your rebirth.

Verse 2

When the road gets tough and you feel all alone,

Remember in your heart, you’re never on your own.

Lift your head up high, let your voice be heard,

You’re a force of nature, unstoppable, undeterred.

Pre-Chorus

Hold your head up, let your spirit soar,

You’ve faced the battles, you’re ready for more.

Life’s a journey, not a race to the end,

With every twist and turn, you’ll find a way to mend.

Chorus

So stand and deal, face the storms that come,

With courage in your heart, you’ll never succumb.

You’re a warrior, fierce and bright,

You’ll rise from the ashes, embracing the light.

Strong women don’t falter, they know their worth,

Be that woman, show the world your rebirth.

Bridge

Let the world see, your strength shining through,

You’re a beacon of hope, in all that you do.

Every scar tells a story, a mark of your fight,

With each step you take, you’re embracing the light.

Chorus

So stand and deal, face the storms that come,

With courage in your heart, you’ll never succumb.

You’re a warrior, fierce and bright,

You’ll rise from the ashes, embracing the light.

Strong women don’t falter, they know their worth,

Be that woman, show the world your rebirth.

Outro

Be that woman, standing tall and strong,

Embrace your journey, where you truly belong.

With every heartbeat, let your spirit reveal,

You’re unstoppable, so stand and deal.
