I can learn to resist
Anything but temptation
I can learn to co-exist
With anything but pain 

I can learn to compromise
Anything but my desires
I can learn to get along
With all the things I can't explain 

I can learn to resist
Anything but frustration
I can learn to persist
With anything but aiming low 

I can learn to close my eyes
To anything but injustice
I can learn to get along
With all the things I don't know 

You can surrender
Without a prayer
But never really pray
Pray without surrender 

You can fight
Without ever winning
But never ever win
Without a fight
