You got a life to live
And a life to give
Why not take your time?
Why get angry at the smallest of things?
Step back and rewind
We got too much to lose
And a whole lot to give
To even entertain
The though of it all just going away
Dig down deep and say
You matter
To your family
To your friends
To the ones who you haven't met yet
To your future
To your hope
And the ones that you love the most
Ooh, I'm telling you don't give up
Hold on tight
And make it through the night
A week's worth more than you know
You matter
You got so much at hand
And you're not alone
Let me tell you how this story goes
It gets easier as you move along
So may you look back and say
I matter
To my family
To my friends
To the ones who I haven't met yet
To my future
To my hope
To the ones that I love the most
Ooh, I'm telling you don't give up
Hold on tight
And you'll make it through the night
A night's worth more than you know
You matter
