If I can keep my eyes focused on what's ahead,
And allow what's behind me to simply be dead –
Then I will make it.
If I can keep a firm grip on the present elements in my hand,
And wisely position my feet so that I always stand –
Then I will make it.
If I can accept that rocky ground and steep climbs
Are necessary obstacles to be conquered with patience and time -
Then I will make it.
If I can muster my strength to keep pressing on,
Especially in times when it seems I'm being baked by the sun –
Then I will make it.
If I can learn to crucify my pride,
By praying for strength and allowing my friends to stand at my side –
Then I will make it.
If I can fully embrace the good that's inside,
Relinquishing fear, doubt, and shame, so it can shine –
Then I will make it.
If I can do all of these things one day at a time,
Knowing that I'm not perfect, and that being fine –
Then I will make it.
