I AM, I CAN, I WILL

"I AM- two small words, and yet

It’s a powerful place in which to be.

It's my life and I'm living it,
I am already hre, look at me!

I am responsible for my actions,

And all the things I say and do.

I am responsible for my behavior,

And how I interact with you.

I CAN- two small words, and yet,

It's a powerful place in which to be.

It's my life and I am living it,

Traveling the land, sky, and sea.

I can earn the respect of others,

And gain their friendship true.

I can do my best each day,
And help other people too

I WILL- two small words and yet,

It's a powerful place in which to be.

It's my life and I am living it,

I'll be everything just wait and see.

No longer a child, yet not an adult yet,
Iam a teenager still
But don't underestimate my value,
Because I am, I can, I will
