They say, what goes up...
will always find its way down
The world is a circus
The whole world loves a clown
Keep your eye on the prize
anything less is a crime
When you're tired of trying
give it just one more try
Swim against the current
the one standing out in a crowd
Be honest and transparent
be bold and be proud
When the going gets tough
stand as firm as a stone
When somebody needs love
show them they're not alone
Every day brings new struggles
opportunities arise
Learn to dance in the puddles
from the clouds in the sky
We may not get tomorrow
better live for today
Learn to go with the flow
leaving better in our wake
