Your Own Parade

stand still ,don't move , don't break , don't fall
pull yourself together , it ain't the time to crawl
take a breathe , look high , freeze your heart
what's gone is gone , take a fresh step to the start 
kill the fear , kill the pain , kill the hurt 
set it on fire and ashes will become what you've burnt 
your a champion , a shooting star shining in your own parade 
hold that thought and neither your legacy , your strength will ever fade 
just be true to who you really are
and let the past be your reminding scar
