Walk in the Way


Walk in the Way

Know I don't fit in

They can say what they want

Cause Sticks always hurt

and Stones always break

but I'll follow her footsteps

She says

Honey, grab my hand

look up at me

We are here

living in the 21st century

now, Walk in the Way

Be who you are

I'll be strong for You

I'll be the rock for You

now, Walk in the Way

Change what You can

Accept what You can't

Make Yourself known

Live as you want

and, Walk in the Way

 

now I stand tall as I can

I live as I want

I do as I should

make my marks count

make my mind matter

and, Walk in the Way
