Do you have fear
I’m sure you do
What comes next is your game
If you run away
If hide you do
Then this habit is really lame
For learning to face up to your fear
Is what you need to learn
To think about this fear of yours
And then to take a turn
To do something different than you have in the past
To move right past the fear
To look it in the face and say
What is it we have here
Most fears have come from something past
Something that made us small
So if we can talk to the fear
We will start to understand all
Of course we need to be careful
Of things that make us hurt
But when that feeling present
Is really quite a squirt
Then we can step into our power
And shoo it right away
For when we go right past the fear
Then no longer will it stay
And in it’s place we’ll feel real strong
And now we can do more
Then tremble cry roll in a ball
We can get up from the floor
And know that we are more than that
The fear from which we run
When we stand up tall and face that fear
Then we know that we have won
