Looking back has never done that much for me
And Rafiki said to leave the past behind
Still I think if I had better memories
I would have kept some of my mind
Looking forward never happens easily
I tend to stop and stare
And marvel at everyone's bravery
And wonder how they got there
This is me and my chapter
This is me and my chapter
Your chapter is your contribution
To the energy that makes the world go 'round
A legacy to leave behind for others
To leave everything better than you found
So write your chapter quietly and clearly
Do not sacrifice yourself to make it heard
Don't exaggerate for fear of lacking color
And when you're done, stand behind every word
This is me and my chapter
This is me and my chapter
I stand before you here
Without my pride, without my fear
Leave it laying on the floor
So it won't trouble me no more
This is me and my chapter
This is me and my chapter
This is me and my chapter
