You can do it,
No matter what they say.
You can learn and love and grow
Each and every day.
You can do it,
Though others may think not.
Put your back into it,
Give it everything you’ve got.
Any dream can happen,
The world is yours to win.
It doesn’t matter where you’re from
Or the colour of your skin.
Bullies may try to stop you
And say you don’t belong
But they will never top you
And you will prove them wrong.
Your ancestors came across the waters,
And made a life in this new land.
Mighty sons and daughters,
The future is in your hands.
You can do it with magic and thunder.
You can do it with rhythm and skill.
You can do it with wisdom and wonder.
You can do it, and you will.
