DM King - If Lyrics
Official




If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting
Or being lied about don't deal in lies
Or being hated don't give way to hating
And yet don't look too good nor talk too wise:
If you can dream-and not make dreams your master;
If you can think-and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:
Hold on to your courage through storm and strife
Find strength in the journey make meaning of life
In every decision let wisdom be your guide
Stand tall and unwavering with honor and pride
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss
And lose and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'
Hold on to your courage through storm and strife
Find strength in the journey make meaning of life
In every decision let wisdom be your guide
Stand tall and unwavering with honor and pride
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue
Or walk with Kings-nor lose the common touch
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you
If all men count with you but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it
And-which is more-you'll be a Man my son!
Hold on to your courage through storm and strife
Find strength in the journey make meaning of life
In every decision let wisdom be your guide
Stand tall and unwavering with honor and pride
Through all of life's battles when shadows have passed
You've held to the virtues and grown from the past
In moments of triumph and when things went wrong
You've proven your strength where your heart does belong
