As the journey ends a new path begins
With lessons learned through losses and wins
Respect yourself for all you've been through
In the trials of life you've remained true
Every step every fall has shaped who you are
In the mirror of self you are the star
With a heart full of grace and a spirit so free
Respect yourself it's your legacy
Respect yourself in every way
In the light of self-love you'll find your way
With every breath with every fight
Respect yourself shine your light
In the face of doubt stand tall and proud
Respect yourself say it loud
With the strength inside and a heart so pure
Respect yourself you are the cure
Through the darkest nights and the brightest days
Respect yourself in all the ways
In the echoes of your mind hear the truth
In the wisdom of age and the spirit of youth
No one can define you no one but you
Respect yourself in all that you do
With the courage to be and the strength to stand
Respect yourself take your hand
Respect yourself in every way
In the light of self-love you'll find your way
With every breath with every fight
Respect yourself shine your light
In the face of doubt stand tall and proud
Respect yourself say it loud
With the strength inside and a heart so pure
Respect yourself you are the cure
In the quiet moments in the rush of life
Respect yourself through joy and strife
With a heart that's open and eyes that see
Respect yourself let it be
In the journey of self you've come so far
Respect yourself for who you are
With every step forward with every stride
Respect yourself with love and pride
Respect yourself in every way
In the light of self-love you'll find your way
With every breath with every fight
Respect yourself shine your light
In the face of doubt stand tall and proud
Respect yourself say it loud
With the strength inside and a heart so pure
Respect yourself you are the cure
As the final notes play and the journey ends
Respect yourself through the twists and bends
With a heart full of love and a spirit bright
Respect yourself into the night
In the story of your life you're the hero
Respect yourself from zero to zero
Carry these lessons hold them tight
Respect yourself in the darkest night
With the dawn of a new day rise again
Respect yourself through thick and thin
