Ooh! Ooh! Talk about it


You know life, has its ups and downs

(it)Can Turn your pretty face, to an ugly frown

Seems that when I face one thing, another one comes

Clouding up my vision, but I can feel the sun

I believe that I can do this; I know that I can win

Just as long as I have his love within


[Chorus:]

I believe that I can make it, I can make it through the night

I believe that I can walk on, with my head held high

I believe that I am special in every way

But in order to have my victory-I gotta believe-Ooh yeah!


I have to see myself at the finish line

I have to visualize that everything will fall in line

I have to visualize the land while riding through the storm

I have to trust in my father and open up my heart

I know that I can do this I know that I can win

Just as long as I have his love within


[Chorus:]

I believe....Ohh oohh

I believe I can walk on.... with my head held high

I believe that I am special yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

But in order to have my victory


[Bridge:]

Ohh! Heartbreak (I can handle it)

And heart pain (I can handle it)

Being let down (I can handle it)

No one's around (I can handle it)

I believe I can (I can handle it)

I receive I can (I can handle it)

And now I'm walking right into my victory


I believe that I can

I believe I'll walk on walk on walk on walk on

I am special yes I am Oh oh oho ho

And in order to have victory (Everybody help me say)


Oh I believe..... Oh I believe

I'm gonna walk on... with my head held high

I believe that..... there no body like me

And in order for me to .....victory I gotta believe yeah
