Zippy Yore - You can't put your hands down, even if they’re paralyzed Lyrics

Yeah, you believe it's hard for you, why me, Lord, why me?
But what about those who suffer, for being who they are forced to be?
You ask why all this is happening to you, as if you were cursed.
But think of those who struggle, whose challenges are far worse.

I cry too, though men aren't supposed to cry,
And when instead of the question what to do, comes the question why
I'm watching the Paralympics, such a sight for sore eyes,
Their resilience and spirit, inspiring my highs.
It clears my head from ear to ear,
And the voice of reason I begin to hear.

You can't put your hands down, even if they're paralyzed,
You can still change, even if the only thing you can do is open your eyes.
If you want, you can win all your battles even if you can't rise,
For life is here and right now, not in the skies.

I have arms and legs, I can see and speak,
I have nothing to complain about, my future is sleek.
I cry too, though men aren't supposed to cry,
It's time to do my job and don't ask that damn question why.

You can't put your hands down, even if they're paralyzed,
You can still change, even if the only thing you can do is open your eyes.
If you want, you can win all your battles even if you can't rise,
For life is here and right now, not in the skies.
