When times are tough
when money is low
when days are short
and there’s nowhere to go
Pick your head UP
When backs are turned
and bills are due
when clothes no longer fit
this is what you must do
Pick your head UP
When cravings are strong
and tempers are high
when blame surrounds you
and you don’t know why
Pick your head UP
When clouds roll in
when light fades away
When hunger screams
and fights you everyday
Pick your head UP
When failure exists
And success disappears
When you’re losing all hope
And life is filled with fears
Pick your head UP
When all seems lost
And the end seems near
Pick your head UP
I AM RIGHT HERE
