Carry On

Carry on, through pain and sadness
when you feel pulled down with the weight.
Carry on, through triumph and joy
when the thrill threatens to take you from your path.
Carry on through failure
Carry on through rejection
those don't really matter.
Carry on by the help of friends
Carry on by helping friends
Carry on when everything around you
tells you to just give up.
Carry on when you feel like you
can no longer carry on.
And when you feel like you've arrived
at where you're supposed to be.
Don't stop.
Carry on, always, one step
further.
