Be calm when the worst happens
Be calm when you feel in despair
Be calm when everything seems helpless
Be calm when you feel nothing is worth it anymore
Be calm when your heart wishes to give up
Believing nothing is there to help
To heal the deepening wound
Be calm when your eyes water
Be calm when you sigh a heavy sigh
Be calm in the face of all this
Do not give up
You are irresistible
You are strong
Be brave
Survive
Live
Do it for me
Be calm when life seems impossible
When it seems never-ending
Be calm
Just please be calm
For you will overcome
You shall overcome
I believe with all my being, heart, and soul
You will overcome!
