Life isn’t always a bowl of cherries
Or one long dance in the light
Sometimes it’s shitty and smelly
When more goes wrong than ever goes right
People around you can turn real nasty
With money and work hard to find
The wind in your sails might go missing
And you feel like you’re in a real bind
But it’s at times like this you must keep going
When the road seems steep and hard to tread
For that’s how you get to reach the peak
And your troubles at last you can shed
No, success isn’t always plain sailing
Still waters can turn rough and wild
But maneuver your way through its dangers
And you’ll land safely on the other side
Yes, skies can turn overcast and cloudy
Rain pour like it might never stop
But just when you think you can’t take much more
The sun through the clouds it will pop
The secret is to keep on trying
Learn never to lose faith or hope
Winners fall down as much as losers
But fight back when against the rope
So the next time you feel like quitting
Have a little more faith in self
For it’s the ability to keep on trying
That gives you true inner strength
Through the heat of adversity
Our mettle is bent in to shape
And the willingness to keep on going
Is what finally determines our fate
So the next time you feel like quitting
Desire instead the odds to defy
For true winners in life never lose hope
They simply give things another try
Never, ever give up!
