Arms open wide
I swallow my pride
And accept life as it should be
Hope and fear
All gathering here
It surrounds me
Sun shining bright
This strengthening light
It shines upon me
No lingering here
So much now is clear
And I feel free
The future is mine
There’s a limited time
It won’t be easy
But I’ve got to try
No wondering why
Of what could be
I’ve got laughter and grace
A smile on my face
And I’m steady
Ready for now
No wondering how
It’s crazy
Taking my chances
on life and its dances
I’m so ready
This is my shot
So ready or not
I won’t go softly
Strongly I stand
Please understand
This is me
With no apologies
I swallow my pride
And accept life as it should be
Hope and fear
All gathering here
It surrounds me
Sun shining bright
This strengthening light
It shines upon me
No lingering here
So much now is clear
And I feel free
The future is mine
There’s a limited time
It won’t be easy
But I’ve got to try
No wondering why
Of what could be
I’ve got laughter and grace
A smile on my face
And I’m steady
Ready for now
No wondering how
It’s crazy
Taking my chances
on life and its dances
I’m so ready
This is my shot
So ready or not
I won’t go softly
Strongly I stand
Please understand
This is me
With no apologies
