Oh you can be what you want to be,

See what you want to see,

Believe in yourself,

Believe in yourself.



Go where you want to go,

Do what you want to do

Believe in yourself,

Believe in yourself.



Some folks try to tell you there are things you shouldn't do

You're not strong enough or smart enough at all,

But what seems right to them quite often

Might be wrong for you,

So be sure you try to climb

Before you get too scared you fall.



Oh, you can be what you want to be,

Learn what you want to learn,

Believe in yourself,

Believe in yourself.



Try what you need to try,

No one should question why,

Believe in yourself,

Believe in yourself.



Folks may say you're different,

That you've gone and lost your senses,

But the world is yours to walk in,

Go ahead and leap the fences.



And you'll see,

Believe in yourself

And the world belongs to you and me
