Even though I stand tall
I often trip and fall
Sometimes I’m down so low
I think of just letting go
Letting go and giving in
Seeing no light at the end
Struggling to make it every day
Figuring out what to and not to pay
HE never said life would be easy or fair
But HE promised to always be there
Even when others don’t treat you right
Or when you just want to give up and fight
Even thru it all I still manage to smile
Because quitting is not my style
So I will get up and knock off the dirt
And do what I have to do to make it work
