[Verse 3]

           
Life is a jour

    
ney
It can take you anywhere you choose to go
As long as you're learning
You'll find all you'll ever need to know
(be strong)
You'll break it
(hold on)
You'll make it
Just don't forsake it because

             
No one can tel

          
l you what you

 can't do
              
No one can sto

          
p you, you kno

w that I'm tal

king to you
