First Step

First step
Believe in yourself
When others don't
From now on 
Its what I will do verses what I wont
You've got the power
You've got that spark
Give it all you got
Start with your heart
Find that compassion 
Give it a 100% satisfaction
What's your reaction
Where could you go 
Reach for the highest 
Climb to the top
Whatever you do 
Just don't stop

(chorus)
You have to look inside 
And see
There's so much more to you
Than you know
You are the shining light
So just Glow
In life you can succeed
Take the first step
And Believe

(Verse2)
Take a look 
Step back 
And embrace 
That you've overcome every obstacle
You've faced 
And it didn't kill you
Made you stronger
Made you tough out 
Your battles a little while longer 
So have you ever asked yourself
Today,
Did you make a difference
Did you make a change
Did you want everything the same
Did you ever try to find
What  lies behind ya
Did you start achieving
When you stop downing yourself
And start believing

chorus)
You have to look inside 
And see
There's so much more to you
Than you know
You are the shining light
So just Glow
In life you can succeed
Take the first step
And Believe

(Bridge)
Keep on striving
Dont give up
Or in 
Start all over
Time to begin
Everyone has done some wrong
Inspite of God still loves us all
Even sees us through our flaws
We are books
That haven't been open
Simply we have been chosen 
Its totally up to you ??
You can do it
But you have to the Faith
To move through this place
At a steady pace
What I've spoken is the truth
Believe in yourself
No matter what
You represent greatness
Yes you do
But it all starts within you

chorus)
You have to look inside 
And see
There's so much more to you
Than you know
You are the shining light
So just Glow
In life you can succeed
Take the first step
And Believe
