Lea Salonga
Stronger Than Before
[HANNAH]
Stop and think a moment
You have to stay and rest
There's a child who needs you now
You have to do what's best
[KEI]
You don't understand us
Or what they put us through
This is no concern of yours
I'll do what I must do
Years inside here taught me
The world won't set things right
It's up to us to save ourselves
I'm ready for the fight
I am stronger than before
Braver than before
This courage I've discovered
I've never needed more
I have learned to move a mountain
In the middle of a war!
There is no returning
I'm stronger than before
[HANNAH]
You won't do this alone now
I know where I belong
You've always stood for what was right
While I stood for what's wrong
When I stepped into this prison
Who knew what lay ahead?
I thought I'd face the enemy
But I fell in love instead
I made Sam a promise
That I'd look out for you
So I will help get Frankie out
It's what I have to do
I am stronger than before
Braver than before
I swear I'll stand beside you
To even out the score
[KEI]
I don't know how to thank you
[HANNAH]
No thanks are needed, Kei
I do what I have to
[KEI]
I guess we're both that way
[HANNAH & KEI]
After all that’s happened here
We cannot pretend
That we aren't bound together
We will see this to the end
To the end!
We are stronger
Stronger than before
[HANNAH]
Whatever this may cost me
Doesn't matter anymore
[KEI]
We are women who move mountains
[HANNAH & KEI]
In the middle of a war
We are stronger than before
[HANNAH]
And I will face
[KEI]
Within this place
[HANNAH]
What lies in store
[KEI]
We have grown
[HANNAH & KEI]
Stronger than before!
