The mission of this tour is to educate students on issues surrounding mental heath and suicide prevention. Teen suicide is currently the second leading cause of death for children and young people 10 to 24 years old. Nearly 1 in 5 high school students said they considered suicide in the previous year. Through dynamic original music, unique personal stories, and thought provoking visual images, these presentations are designed to engage and inspire through authenticity relevant to the younger generation. To book Alex Boyé's 'Bend not Break' musical presentation at your school, please contact: Eddie Wenrick on (949) 749 - 2500 or email: eddiewenrick@gmail.com Every 40 seconds, someone in the world dies by suicide.

When’s the last time you thought life’s worth living? You may think there’s only one way out Can’t see beyond the way you feel right now. But if you just bend And not break If you just bend And not break oh At least not today Ohhh Olele olele eyo Olele olele I know that this permanence is tempting Cuz even on a good day you feel empty But Someone’s gonna miss you when you’re gone There’s so much more to do if you hold on! If you just bend And not break If you just bend And not break At least not today Not today Not today Not today At least not today Not today Not today Not today Hold on! Cause you’ve got a mother Got a sister Got a brother Got a father Son and daughter in your life If you just bend And not break If you just bend And not break At least not today I can tell by the way you feel its hard to stay strong, in the midst of all this madness through the darkness please hold on yeah, won't you please hold on? "Hold on!!! (Kids choir) Cause you’ve got a mother Got a sister Got a brother Got a father Son and daughter in your life. They’re living for you!! Cause you’ve got a mother Got a sister Got a brother Got a father Son and daughter in your life.
