TO MY FELLOW YOUTHS
Ever Tried?
Ever failed?
No matter what, Try again.
Fail again.
Fail better.
Get up and Try again,
The world is yours,
Grab a space and take your place.
Keep your gaze towards the sunshine,
And shadows will fall behind you.
Lit up the night for you are the Light.
Ever failed?
No matter what, Try again.
Fail again.
Fail better.
Get up and Try again,
The world is yours,
Grab a space and take your place.
Keep your gaze towards the sunshine,
And shadows will fall behind you.
Lit up the night for you are the Light.
