A smile usually comes to my Face,
Because thats when Im at my Best.

When things start to fall down around Me,
I don't cower and run in Fear,
I step Up and take Charge.

Many people would just Run,
Not I.
Few people would go Forward,
Into the Danger,
Into the Situation,
That is Me.

When everyone Doubts Me,
Thats when I let them See,
That when everything is Going Wrong,
I will set them Right Again.

I do love Challenges,
And when they come Along,
I love the Oppitunity.

Under Pressure,
I am the Best,
Under the Gun,
I am better than the Rest.
Back me into a Corner,
And you will See.
Let the chips fall where they May,
And I will stand up and show the Way.

When Im backed into a Corner,
A smile usually comes to my Face,
Because thats when Im at my Best.

When things start to fall down around Me,
I don't cower and run in Fear,
I step Up and take Charge.

Many people would just Run,
Not I.
Few people would go Forward,
Into the Danger,
Into the Situation,
That is Me.

When everyone Doubts Me,
Thats when I let them See,
That when everything is Going Wrong,
I will set them Right Again.

I do love Challenges,
And when they come Along,
I love the Oppitunity.

Under Pressure,
I am the Best,
Under the Gun,
I am better than the Rest.
Back me into a Corner,
And you will See.
Let the chips fall where they May,
And I will stand up and show the Way.
