Everyone's got his strength,
   got his weakness,
   life offers more to you,
   than prayer and working.
   Why do you hide yourself
   behind excuses?
   Why don't you take your chance
   and presume your own way.
  
   Seize your day,
   trust yourself,
   believe in yourself,
   go straight,
   your own way,
   seize your day.
  
   You've got to run your world,
   you've got to learn how.
   Waiting to get things done,
   presents no answers.
   Why don't you free yourself,
   clear of excuses?
   Why don't you take your chance
   and presume your own way...
  
   Seize your day,
   trust yourself,
   believe in yourself,
   go straight your own way,
   seize your day.
