You’ll have to crawl, so pick up that pen

And if you fall, get back up again.

How can a soldier become mighty

If he never uses his sword

How can he win his battles

If he never learns to fight at all.

You’ll have to crawl if you want to walk

A single step, or stroke of a paintbrush

A single alphabet, or musical note

Could be the beginning of your legacy.

You’ll have to crawl if you want to walk,

You’ll have to crawl first, before you can run.
