Can't is a word
That you should never say
Though it's often heard
It can get in the way
Of all of the things
That a person can do
If they only tried
And had a mind to

You can do anything
If you insist
That what can't be done
Does not exist
People have achieved
All kinds of things
By believing they could
Do what CAN brings

But can't is a word
That stops you from trying
A crutch, an excuse
On which you're relying
Now is the time to understand
The most powerful two words
Are YES and I CAN!
