Take your chances, boy 'Cause they may never come again Don't you live your life With regret for what you with you did And get your punches in But don't ever run from consequence On your own two feet you'll face Whatever finds you, in the end Just try to do right by everyone And always protect the ones you love And you'll find you'll get back Every bit of good that you put in You'll have to earn your keep Don't think you're entitled to anything But I hope you learn the gratitude To always help those who have less than you And don't be afraid of change Never be afraid to make mistakes I hope these words help you find your place But whatever you do, I'll be proud of you Just try to do right by everyone And always protect the ones you love And you'll find you'll get back Every bit of good that you put in Never give up on what you want Learn to hold on when it gets tough And you'll find you'll get back Every bit of good that you put in Only compromise, if it feels right Don't stand your ground, when you're wrong I wrote these words for you Take these with you Just try to do right by everyone And always protect the ones you love And you'll find you'll get back Every bit of good that you put in Never give up on what you want Learn to hold on when it gets tough And you'll find you'll get back Every bit of good that you put in
