Strong

I can't tell you all my secrets
Maybe you should start with one
You're right
I'll show you where I met your dad
He'd be proud of his son
Who cares?
We're better off without him

No
It's time you found out more about him
Wow, look at the size of those waves
Fire's going
Somebody needs a marshmallow
And they're blue
Don't tell me you're too old for blue food
You met dad on this beach?

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

Then he ditched us
No coming home for dinner
Yeah, he sounds like a real winner
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
Was he a screw up too?
Sorry, mom, if I was only normal
Hey

Blue food isn't normal
Blue food is strange
And that's why it's my favorite
I never want 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
Mom, if you're weird, you're weak
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
The only thing I seem to be destined for is detention

I can't focus
I stink at school
My ADD gets the best of me
Dyslexia, not cool

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

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