The easy thing to do is quit
To say “I’ve had enough
Life has kicked me down too much
And I don’t have it in me to stay tough.”
Before self-pity takes over your life
Before you say “I am done.”
Remember, why you took up this challenge
Remember, why this fight was begun.
You had a dream; you had a plan
You reeked of determination
Obstacles arose and challenges were met
You faced some serious frustration.
We all face doubts; we all face jeers
From ourselves and from those we love
The trick is not take them to heart
The trick is to rise above.
There are always those who will doubt your dreams
They ridicule your decisions
It’s easier for them to take you down
than to admit they possess no vision
Don’t let your determination die
Have faith that it will see you through
Determination is your best friend
Your dreams, it will deliver to you
