I Know I Can (Je Sache Que Je Pourrai)

There is still some hope...

Life is staring at me, Tormenting at every instance; However hard I try, There is nothing but chagrin.

I wish I were a stoic, Caring a damn about a thing; But He tests only those, Who have the will and the poise.

The situation is quite leery, The odds against me; but still, Fightin” with a leonine mien, There is no one so keen.

I hope my sanguineness lasts, In spite of the surrounding darkness. I try to look ahead, With an everlasting passion.

I know I can win, Letting nothing to the bin. Waitin” for a big chance, A chance that makes me dance.

Though it seems a long way off, Some day I see myself--- Walking down the victorious path, With full of joie de vivre.
