You must pull yourself together,
Though you think there is no way
For things to ever be fine.
Just remember these three words...
'I'll Be OK! '
You're on your own now,
When no one really listens to you,
No one even cares what you say.
But just remember these three words.
'I will live! '
Just get up, keep going, my friend...
Pull yourself up by your own bootstraps,
Learn to depend upon yourself,
Always remember these three words...
'I will Survive! '
You can't stop playing the game
Just because the going gets rough.
When the rules change
And the score leaves you at '0, '
Think 'I'll be alright! '
When you think 'there is no way
I will ever be OK,
Because I am going down for the third time, '
Remind yourself of this line:
'I'll be fine! '
When no one listens to you,
You think you are talking to yourself,
Take these three trusty words off the shelf:
'I am ALIVE! '
I'll be OK!
I will live!
I will survive!
I'll be alright!
I'll be fine!
I AM ALIVE! !
