Remember how you used to say 

"you couldn't wait till tomorrow for a brand new day" 

No fuss when ya had to ride the bus 

You could add a little blush 

Just to paralyze your school crush 



Now your older and the weight upon your shoulder 

Makes the world a little colder 

No more hidin in the old days 

Be strong 

Don't give up hope 

It will get hard 

Cause life's like a jump rope 



Up down when it gets hard remember life's like a jump rope 



There'll be a bump there will be a bruise 

There'll be alarms and there will be a snooze 

There'll be a path that you will get to choose 

There'll be a win and there will be a lose 



You have to hold your head up high and 

Watch all the negative go by 

Don't you ever be ashamed to cry 

You go ahead 

Cuz life's like a jump rope 



I want to tell you that everything will be okay 

That everything will eventually turn itself to gold 

Keep pushin through it all 

Don't follow, lead the way 

Don't lose yourself or your hope 



Remember life's like a jump rope
