Endo Warriors: the song

Hey All,
My very talented friend Casey (author of the blog chancesour.blogspot.com) wrote a beautiful song about what it means to be an "Endo Warrior." I was honored to be asked to sing it, and we recorded it and posted it on you tube. We would love for you to watch it and share it!

Here are the words: 

People say I’m crazy,
That I’m just not strong enough.
People say I’m lazy,

That it’s time that I get tough.
They don’t understand,

This pain I can’t ignore.
It hurts with every breathe,

I can’t take it anymore.
Chorus:
I may not be strong enough or tough enough for you.

You may not choose to see my reality as truth.
But, I’ll no longer listen to your words that are only hurting me.

I am a warrior you will see.
 
Surgery after surgery
The many scars run so deep.

And yet it always seems,
Nothing brings relief.

Hard to keep my head up,

Feel so all alone.
Countless hours spent,

With my heating pad at home.

Chorus
I may not be strong enough or tough enough for you.

You may not choose to see my reality as truth.
But, I’ll no longer listen to your words that are only hurting me.

I am a warrior you will see.

Bridge
It’s time we come together and stand as one in pain.
It’s time for once our cries aren’t heard in vain.
If we lean on each other our power will not wane.

 
The mountains I have climbed,
One day you will understand

Then you’ll finally know
How strong I really am.

Chorus:
I may not be strong enough or tough enough for you.

You may not choose to see my reality as truth.

And I’ll keep fighting this disease that has completely ravaged me.

I am a warrior you will see.

Endowarrior you will see.

**Please let me know what you think!!**
