Lyrics
1st Verse:
When life kicks you down, don’t frown
Turn it upside down and don’t drown
Shine that light that fuels a plight of insight
Remember that your value is worth the fight
Overcome these troubles with a soft touch
Right now it might not seem like much
But your effort is key to achieving your dream
So don’t build up any ravenous steam
Unleash toward the goal of success
It’s not suppose to be an easy test
Stress lives, but don’t let it rule
Worry causes suspense, so don’t play the fool
Dwellin on the nonsense isn’t your role
There’s too much that can’t be controlled
Just remember that tomorrow is a new day
And you can’t change what happened yesterday
But believe that everything happens for a reason
There’s always hope in the new season
Decide to improve instead of settlin for less
Because you gotta get back up out of this mess
2nd Verse:
Don’t let others dictate your fate
It’s your life and story to make great
Their negativity is just a distraction
Ignore it so that you can continue elevation
Words may hurt, but they aren’t permanent
Your will can erase those pains of the ignorant
As long as you’re breathin you’re not defeated
Keep moving forward until life is completed
Rise above the influence of deceit
You’re not made to be instilled in grief
Remainin stagnant is never an option
There’s too much at stake to have no motion
Follow what it is that provides hope
Because it will aid you before saying no
Shed away those who can’t support growth
Even if that means you have to stand alone
The flesh will always fail, but spirit always lives
Just because a person turns away, doesn’t mean you can’t lift
God will provide all you need in the end
If you accept Him and remain invested
3rd Verse:
You may not know it but you have influence
Those around you are closely taking notice
Your actions speak louder than words
So always let something positive be heard
Get back up each and every time
Don’t ever let there be a final line
You’re far too valuable to give up
Life isn’t easy, but you too are tough
Embrace the heartache that made you strong
The essence of victory is never wrong
Though the process can be ever so long
The journey will produce a more vibrant song
You’ve tasted it before overcoming troubles for success
Keep striving to continue that now in the present
Don’t let your fierce determination lie in the past
That feelin of happiness needs to last
Open your heart and mind up to motivation
That is where you once found resolution
The strength has always been there, you know this
Allow it to dwell again so that you can remain courageous
