Let me tell you

I remember in the days of old,
Doesn't seem that long ago,
It was....
" Johnny you won't be nothing unless you do what you're told",
Study medicine or study law,
And please put away the guitar,
The best you'll ever be is a local star at the local bar,

But I went and did it anyway,
Family helping all the way,
Now I'm here today,
5 records later,
So you can hear me say,

Don't ...let em tell you can't be,
Anything you wanna be,
Don't be deceived,
Anything's possible,
If ....you will just believe,
Then you can succeed,
It might not be easy,
But anything's possible,

What if old Ben Franklin,
Would of been frightened by lightening,
If he would of stayed inside .....then
We'd still be in the dark,

Martin Lurther King,
Did some beautiful things,
All because he had a dream,
Just like you and me,

Don't ...let em tell you can't be,
Anything you wanna be,
Don't be deceived,
Anything's possible,
If ....you will just believe,
Then you can succeed,
It might not be easy,

Don't you know --it's gonna be sweat
and some tears,
and some hard years,
best believe they'll be hurt,
And some pain,
Expect some rain,

You're gonna make it if you try,
Keep your eye-on the prize,
You can take it,
You might have to work it,but it's gonna be worth it,
Don't let em tell you that you dont deserve it
