4. Claim your place in life

Lift your head, let your strength grow,

Stand tall, unbroken, let courage show.


The world may watch, but it won't define,

The light inside of you will always shine.


Gossipers drift where negatives sway,

Let them pass and fade away.


Your choices, your heart, your way,

You are a winner, no matter what others say.


Walk your path, stay proud and true,

For only you can judge what you do.


No hand can write the goals you reap,

No eye can see the depths you keep.


You shall grow in every space,

Let nothing steal your strength and grace,


Rise with hope and claim your place,

Let your glow shine brightly, in every face.
