Nothing Else Matters

There are so many pressures in life, 
And so many reasons to throw in the towel
There are too many battles to fight
With so little strength, all by yourself
Have faith and be strong, and when in doubt
Carry on 
You can take the pain, The heartaches life brings
The confidence is knowing, You'll soon be there
You can make it in this world, If you just believe
You are that much closer,  Don't stop running
We are not perfect, we share common faults
Don't focus on your mistakes or on yesterday's loss, 
Keep your eyes stayed on him , and he will see you through
No matter how big the struggle, There's nothing he can't do
