A helping hand was never there
"I'll do it on my own"
A helping hand was never there
"I will stand alone"

A helping hand was never there
"I can force the victory"
A helping hand was never there
"I don’t just look; I try to see"

A helping hand was never there
"I thought they never cared"
A helping hand was never there
"I looked for it everywhere"

A helping hand was never there
"I shut it out long ago"
A helping hand was never there
"I turned myself from friend to foe"

A helping hand was always there
"Pride cut out my sight"
A helping hand was always there
"Willing to stay and fight"
