You Must Persist

"You Must Persist" is a song from the Elena of Avalor episode, "Changing of the Guard". It is sung by Princess Elena and Antonia Bello, where Elena tries to convince Antonia not to quit being a royal guard. Antonia hesitates at first, but is eventually convinced to give another shot for her dream.
== Lyrics ==
Elena: You think you’re all alone in this     
But like you I’ve been dismissed     
At my first royal retreat     
They tried to deny me a seat     
But I wouldn’t let myself be rejected     
I fought until I was respected   
Antonia: I know but –   
Elena: “But” cannot be a word you use     
To waver now would mean you lose     
Why quit when you are this close     
To getting the thing you want most     
You stand there feeling so defeated     
But that will change once you’ve succeeded     
You must persist through all resistance     
You must persist just go the distance     
You’ve got the right to fight this fight     
So I insist this chance cannot be missed     
You must persist, You must persist     
Antonia: But what if they never accept me?     
Elena: They’ll have to when you’re on the team     
Antonia: But I quit In the middle of tryouts     
Elena: Then un-quit and follow your dream     
Antonia: My dream     
I must persist through all resistance     
I must persist just go the distance    
I’ve got the right to fight this fight     
Elena & Antonia: So re-enlist   
Elena: This chance cannot be missed     
Antonia: I must persist     
Elena:You must persist     
Antonia: I must persist     
Elena: You must persist   
Elena&Antonia: This chance cannot be missed   
Elena: You must persist   
Antonia: I must persist
