Intro

Let me tell you something you already know The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows It's a very mean and nasty place And I don't care how tough you are It will beat you to your knees And keep you there permanently if you let it You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life But it ain't about how hard ya hit It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward How much you can take and keep moving forward That's how winning is done!

Pain is temporary! It may last for a minute, or an hour, or a day, or even a year But eventually it will subside And something else will take its place If I quit however, it will last forever

The margin for error is so small I mean, one half a step too late or too early And you don't quite make it One half second too slow, too fast and you don't quite catch it The inches we need are everywhere around us They're in every break of the game, every minute, every second

You got a dream You gotta protect it People can't do somethin' themselves They wanna tell you you can't do it If you want somethin', go get it Period

Don't be afraid to fail You can't always win But don't be afraid of making decisions

You have to believe that something different can happen He who says he can, and he who says he can't Are both usually right

Most of you say you want to be successful But you don't want it bad You just kinda want it You don't want it badder than you wanna party You don't want it as much as you want to be cool Most of you don't want success as much as you want to sleep

One inch at a time

To be able at any moment to sacrifice what you are For what you will become Most of you won't be successful Because when you're studying and you get tired, you quit "I don't do well in math!" You right! You ain't never studied "I'm not good in writing" 'cause you ain't never written before

Talent you have naturally Skill is only developed

If you are not making someone else's life better Then you're wasting your time

Don't cry to give up Cry to keep going Don't cry to quit, you're already in pain You're already hurt, get a reward from it!

Now if you know what you're worth Then go out and get what you're worth But you gotta be ready to take the hits And not go pointing fingers saying You ain't where you wanna be Because of him or her or anybody Cowards do that and that ain't you! You're better than that!

'Cause every day is a new day Every moment is a new moment So now you got to go out And show them that you're a different creature!

I'ma show you how great I am!

Yeah, I'd like to welcome ya "The Kingdom of God is within man" Not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you, you, the people have the power The power to create machines. The power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power To make this life free and beautiful To make this life a wonderful adventure

Now, what are you gonna do?

Because limits, like fears, are often just an illusion
