Strong

[Sally]
I can't tell you all my secrets

[Percy]
Maybe you should start with one

[Sally]
You're right

I'll show you where I met your dad
He'd be proud of his son

[Percy]
Who cares?

We're better off without him

[Sally]
No

It's time you found out
More about him

[Percy]
Wow, look at the size of those waves

[Sally]
Fire's going
Somebody needs a marshmallow
And they're blue!
Don't tell me you're too old for blue food

[Percy]
You met dad on this beach?

[Sally]
I first saw him in the water
Coming out of the morning mist
He was handsome, strong
And before too long-
You came
To exist

[Percy]
And he ditched us

No coming home for dinner
Yeah, he sounds like a real winner

[Sally]
Percy, he didn't have a choice
He wanted to meet you
And he warned me that things
Might be hard if you were like him

[Percy]
Was he a screw up too?
Sorry, mom. If I was only
Normal-

[Sally]
Hey

Blue food isn't normal
Blue food is strange
And that's why it's my favorite
I never want it to change

To make it boring orange or green
Why be blah
When there's aquamarine

Normal is a myth
Everyone has issues they're dealing with

[Percy]
Mom, if you're weird, you're weak

[Sally]
That's where you're wrong
The things that make you different
Are the very things that make you
Strong

So, be strong

You'll see, you're destined for great things

[Percy]
The only thing I seem to be destined for is detention

I can't focus
I stink at school
My A.D.D. gets the best of me
Dyslexia: Not cool

[Sally]
Just hang on son
One day you'll find
You'll leave that boring little life behind

[Percy and Sally]
Normal is a myth
Everyone has issues they're dealing with

[Sally]
And there's a place
You need to go
Where you belong

Where the things that make you different
Are the things that make you special
Special like your father
Yes, percy, you are special

Like food the color blue
All the things that make you, you
Are the things
That will make you
Strong

[Percy and Sally]
So be strong
