Line out the field
With chalk on the ground,
Number the squares
Where your step will be found.

Aim very hard
And throw in your stone.
Go to your goal.
You can do it, I know.

Life isn’t fair -
You will stumble and fall.
But then you’ll get up
And you will go on.

Let the other kids laugh,
The adults shake their heads.
Shut the cruel voices out -
You will find your way ahead.
