The Climb

Yesterday was really hard for me. I went into a test feeling completely unprepared even though I did study and I studied with my study group. I just felt completely lost in the material and it all just made me want to cry. I came out of the testing room and found everyone talking about how that test was so hard. They all felt that if they would take the first part of the test away they would have done better. Luckily I wasn't alone in my feelings. I hate coming out of a test feeling that way. 

I know its going to sound very cheesy but I was talking to one of the girls in my class because she commented on the paper that I have printed off on pretty paper in my binder. Its the words to Francesca Battistelli's Free to be Me because I just feel that the lyrics pretty well describe me. After yesterday though, I realize that the words to Miley Cyrus' song The Climb really described the journey that I am on right now and we were talking about how the lyrics were so true to all of us right now. I just decided that I really wanted to share them with you so I want you to really read the words and think about it. Don't just be like "eh, I have heard that song and I don't like Miley Cyrus". Really read the words. 

"The Climb"

I can almost see it.
That dream I'm dreaming, but
There's a voice inside my head saying
You'll never reach it
Every step I'm takin'
Every move I make
Feels lost with no direction,
My faith is shakin'
But I gotta keep tryin'
Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down, but
No I'm not breaking
I may not know it, but
These are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most
I've just gotta keep goin', and
I gotta be strong
Just keep pushing on, cause

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb

Keep on movin'
Keep climbin'
Keep the faith baby
It's all about, it's all about
The climb
Keep the faith, keep your faith, woah
