When I lose I stumble on.

When I win I grin ear to ear.

Pride never falters, it flows with finess.

It courses through your veins, strengthening you.

It challenges you to do your best.

I'm not the smartest person,

I struggle like most.

But, when I receive my tests back,

I am eager to see the grade.

The grade that defines pride.

The grade that chooses whether I stumble,

Or if I'll grin, ear to ear.

The grade that will show whether I falter or flow.

I am strong, I am challenged.

I see it and I grin.

Pride is with me another day.
