It's not that you're fabulous
But neither are you bad
Ti's not the skills you lack
Nor the will to make them better
To say that you'll be the best
Can be proven false
But to say that you won't do
Is by far against the law
When I met you that day
I sensed a future all your own
Only you can make your future
Only you decide your fate
If you fall down to the ground
Stand and make things right
If you take one step back
Just know you'll take three forward
Life will never be easy
Nor kind to those who struggle
Just make the best of what you got
Cause what you got may be the best
