Be-- No Matter What!

When thing don't go as you'd have them go,
when naysayers try to bring you down,
when your best efforts are not enough,
and it seems you just go round and round ...

Be a ball--
bounce!
Be a diva--
flounce!
Be the top cat--
pounce!
Be yourself and
trounce!

Let negativity roll off your hide;
it can't hurt if you don't let it in!
Keep on keeping on, it's what you do--
Go ever onward: you'll always win!

Be your quarterback--
score!
Be greedy--
want more!
Be a lion--
roar!
Be yourself and
soar!

Don't let anyone clip your wings,
don't let anyone say you can't fly,
don't let anyone hold you back--
You will triumph if you try!

Be the ballerina--
dance!
Be the one--
who takes a chance!
Let your inner child--
prance!
Eyes to the fore--
no backward glance!

Yes ...

Be the ballerina--
dance!
Be the one--
who takes a chance!
Let your inner child--
prance!
Be yourself and
you enhance!
