Whenever you were in trouble,
you came to me for help.
Yet because of circumstances,
I only gave moral support.
Rebuffed, you went alone
into the world by yourself.
Oh...
I can't be your Jesus,
I am only my personal Buddha.
Stand up for yourself.
Self-sufficiency is a virtue
to be nurtured with care.
Stand up for yourself.
Whenever I had setbacks,
I learned to rely on myself.
Now, I never lost myself
to the fickleness of change,
because it drives me to adapt
to everchanging circumstances.
Oh...
I can't be your Jesus,
I am only my personal Buddha.
Stand up for youself.
Self-sufficiency is a virtue
to be nurtured with care.
Stand up for yourself.
