| When in the midst of sorrow
|
| You can’t see up when looking down
|
| A brighter day tomorrow will bring
|
| You hear the voice of reason
|
| Telling you this cannot weigh me down
|
| No matter how hard reality seems
|
| Just hold on to your dreams
|
| Don’t give up and don’t give in
|
| Although it seems you never win
|
| You will always pass the test
|
| As long as you keep your head to the sky
|
| You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
|
| You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky

| Cloud up your outlook on life
|
| Just think ahead and you’ll be inspired
|
