You Have it in You
You pick out your shoes,
it makes you feel confident,
like you’re sure of yourself,
like you know where you’re going
You pick at your cereal,
too anxious to eat
butterflies in your tummy,
you worry about how the day’s gonna go
but it goes
and you know
yeah, you know
You have it in you
to try something new
like the first day of school
you have it in you
you have it in you
While we’re waiting in traffic,
you’re so patient,
you take a deep breath
without even complaining
then you can’t find your classroom,
but you persevere,
yeah you look and you look
and you never give up,
’cause you’re ready to listen (you’re curious)
you’re ready to learn and
you find where you’re going (so optimistic)
the day starts to turn
you make a new friend
and the teacher begins to say
You have it in you
to try something new
like the first day of school
you have it in you
you have it in you
You’ve so much potential
you’re so capable
so go take a swing,
you can do anything
You have it in you
to try something new
like the first day of school
you have it in you.
