[00:17.700] If you can keep your head
[00:21.430] While all about you
[00:26.510] People are losing theirs and blaming you
[00:35.200] If you can trust yourself
[00:38.840] When everybody doubts you
[00:43.760] And make allowance for their doubting too.
[00:49.650]
[00:57.680] If you can wait
[01:00.200] And not get tired of waiting
[01:06.300] And when lied about
[01:08.970] Stand tall
[01:10.230] Don't deal in lies
[01:14.910] And when hated
[01:18.800] Don't give in to hating back
[01:23.990] Don't need to look so good
[01:27.650] Don't need to talk too wise.
[01:31.650]
[01:39.210] If you can dream
[01:41.380] And not make dreams your master
[01:46.180] If you can think
[01:49.150] And not make intellect your game
[01:54.920] If you can meet
[01:58.410] With triumph and disaster
[02:04.470] And treat those two imposters just the same
[02:11.790]
[02:19.170] If you can force your heart
[02:22.160] And nerve and sinew
[02:26.980] To serve you
[02:29.390] After all of them are gone
[02:34.480] And so hold on
[02:38.840] When there is nothing in you
[02:43.660] Nothing but the will
[02:46.840] That's telling you to hold on!
[02:53.300] Hold on!
[02:54.480]
[02:57.660] If you can bear to hear
[03:01.560] The truth you've spoken
[03:06.750] Twisted and misconstrued
[03:10.790] By some smug fool
[03:14.840] Or watch your life''s work
[03:18.160] Torn apart and broken down
[03:23.490] And still stoop to build again
[03:28.060] With worn out tools.
[03:31.250]
[03:37.610] If you can draw a crowd
[03:41.630] And keep your virtue
[03:46.270] Or walk with Kings
[03:49.680] And keep the common touch
[03:54.850] If neither enemies nor loving friends
[04:01.140] Can hurt you
[04:03.280] If everybody counts with you
[04:07.200] But none too much
[04:11.900]
[04:17.540] If you can fill the journey
[04:21.820] Of a minute
[04:26.520] With sixty seconds worth of wonder and delight
[04:33.990] Then
[04:35.460] The Earth is yours
[04:38.570] And Everything that's in it
[04:43.440] But more than that
[04:47.520] I know
[04:50.660] You'll be alright
[04:56.720] You'll be alright
[04:58.990]
[05:06.200] Cause you've got the fight
[05:08.110] You've got the insight
[05:15.470] You've got the fight
[05:17.930] You've got the insight
[05:28.850]
