One thing in life
That you will find
Above everything else is your name

Passed down freely
From your family
Where generations have all had their say

It's been quite the mix
Of both women and men
Some voices still speak from the grave

Stand up and fight
For what you feel is right
Above everything else is your name

This name you own it
Shined bright or tarnished
It's all in how you handle your day

In what you've been told
Treat it like gold
In this world of come whatever may

With your reputation
People stop, look, and listen
As through life you make your way

So don't let them down
Those gone and those still around
Above everything else is your name
