What will I do?
If I'm given the chance to smile
If I'm given the chance to serve
If I'm given the chance to sacrifice
What will I do?
Will I only frown
Will I turn away
Will I but scavenge
What will I do?
Will I still be me when everything's right
Will I still be me when the world's gone wrong
Will I remember the things I've been told and taught
What will I do?
When I'm relaxed with my guard down
When my darkest hour sends me to my knees
When I'm far from home and love and peace
What will I do?
Will I rise above my natural self
Do good no matter what others do
Will I be a voice of truth and light
What will I do?
There's one thing I fear above all
When the lights are out, and I'm by myself
When enemies threaten down my door
When friends abandon all sense or rhyme
When I have lost all there is to lose
When screaming is the only option
I fear I will not do.
I fear I will be done.
So now, I make my choice
I will only do
When chips are down, white flag is up
I will not forsake what I know
I will not forsake who I am
I will not forsake who I aim to be
So I don't have to ask, "What will I do?"
