They shoot me down with words so I take them
Put them in the oven and bake them
Sugar-coat it and cake them
Hand it to them so they can taste them
Said the world is mine so I grasped it
In the palm of my hand, to hold, on my own, and now you’re mad?
Why? Because I did something you thought I couldn’t do?
Proven a point you thought I couldn’t prove?
Beaten you in this race but no I won’t shove it in your face.
Instead I’ll go back and help you to the finish line
I know how it feels to be down on hard times,
To have haters say you couldn’t do it,
But you set a goal upon yourself so I’ll help you pursue it,
Pay attention now, listen to what I say
Life is not a game, dedication and hard work will pay.
So lend a hand. You never know when you may need a friend
Like I tell everyone
Work now, rest later
Help others out, never be a hater
