Warriors Don't Cry
Beres Hammond Lyrics

It's either you're in or out
You have to make a decision on whether you are going to commit or not.

gotta know what you're all about
You must identify what drives you and what principles you stand for.

Be bold and strong
Have the courage to face any obstacle that comes your way.

Tell yourself you're not doing wrong
Believe in yourself and keep moving forward despite what others may say.

Once you're in you've got to take it
After deciding to commit, you have to follow through and deal with whatever comes your way.

Make your mind up son and face it
You have to be determined and face the challenges head-on.

Because Warriors don't cry
Real warriors do not give up, despite the difficulties that come their way.

I know lots of folks will hate you
There will be many who won't agree with your decisions, opinions or goals.

and not because they want to
However, their negative attitudes toward you aren't always intentional.

but sometimes they don't even know why.
They have no valid excuse for their judgement, but they do it regardless.

So don't watch the crowd
Don't pay attention to the opinions of others.

Their duty is to be loud
Other people are more inclined to voice their opinions, regardless of the outcome.

Believe in what you're doing
Stay true to yourself and believe in your purpose.

and feel proud
Be proud of your accomplishments, and don't allow others to diminish your effort.

Cause when you fall along the way
There will be times when you may stumble or fail on your journey.

People will have lots to say
Others may judge or take pleasure in your fall.

They don't even care if you make it through the day
They don't want you to succeed, and don't mind watching you fail.

There is no true friend when you're hungry
True loyalty is hard to find when you're in a difficult position.

Not if he is hungry too
Even the closest of friends may turn on you for their own needs.

At times you can't rely
Sometimes you have to depend on yourself rather than others.

Because the same brother
The same friend that you trusted and depended on.

Will send you with the offer
Will offer your sacrifice as long as it benefits them.

Yes feels good and set him right
Your companion may feel good offering you up, and falsely believe they are doing the right thing.

once you're in be prepared to take it
After committing, you have to mentally prepare yourself for the consequences that come.

Make up son and face it cause
You have to be strong and confront the hardship.

Warriors don't cry.
Real warriors keep on fighting no matter what, and they never give up.
