Keep moving forward
Don't look back
Left foot, right foot
Stay on track

Keep your eyes open
And hold your head high
If ever you fall
Get back up and retry

When you come to a roadblock
Don't be discouraged
Gather your strength
And keep on determined

Do these things
And you will see
That no matter what
You CAN succeed
