Anthony Mackie - Civil War: Peggy's Funeral lyrics

[London. It is Margaret "Peggy" Carter's funeral and Steve helps bring the coffin in front of the church.] PREACHER: And now, I would like to invite Sharon Carter to come up and say a few words. SHARON CARTER: Margaret Carter was known to most as a founder of S.H.I.E.L.D. But I just knew her as Aunt Peggy. She had a photograph in her office. Aunt Peggy standing next to JFK. As a kid, that was pretty cool, but, it was a lot to live up to. Which is why I never told anyone we were related. I asked her once how she managed to master diplomacy and espionage at a time when no one wanted to see a woman succeed at either. And she said: "Compromise when you can. Where you can't, don't. Even if everyone is telling you that something wrong is something right. Even if the whole world is telling you to move. It is your duty, to plant yourself like a tree, look them in they eye and say 'No... ...you move.'" [Funeral is over and Steve is standing alone in the church. Natasha walks towards him.] STEVE ROGERS: When I came out of the ice, I thought everyone I had known was gone. When I found out that she was alive, I was just lucky to have her. NATASHA ROMANOFF: She had you back too. STEVE ROGERS: Who else signed. NATASHA ROMANOFF: Tony, Rhodey, Vision. STEVE ROGERS: Clint? NATASHA ROMANOFF: Says he's retired. STEVE ROGERS: Wanda? NATASHA ROMANOFF: TBD. (To Be Determined) I'm off to Vienna for the signing of the Accords. There's plenty of room on the jet. Just because it's the path of least resistance doesn't mean it's the wrong path. Staying together is more important than how we stay together. STEVE ROGERS: What are we giving up to do it? Sorry, Nat. I can't sign it. NATASHA ROMANOFF: I know. STEVE ROGERS: Well, then, what are you doing here? NATASHA ROMANOFF: I didn't want you to be alone. Come here.
