Victory sings this song from the perspective of a father (presumable her own father) who is sharing some of his wisdom and life lessons with her. Her father is encouraging her to not give up and to be persistent in life.
Take my hand and hold it tight
I’m gonna teach you how to fight
And when, forget the past
Don’t let the times you failed before hold you back
Anymore
Have faith and believe that nothing is impossible
Give all you've got, don't be cheap, life is too short for that
And if you ever fall
Just pick up the phone and give me a call and I’ll help you
I’ll help you
Oh yeah, oh oh ohhh oh oh
Get back up and try again
Oh oh ohhh oh oh
Don’t give up, try
Learn to dance
You gotta dance every day to stay young and free
Release the stress
Don’t be anxious or shy be yourself
Undisguised
Love everyone but don’t forget to love yourself
It’s time to take confidence down from the shelf
And if you ever fall
Just pick up the phone and give me a call and I’ll help you
I’ll help you
Oh yeah, oh oh ohhh oh oh
Get back up and try again
Oh oh ohhh oh oh
Don’t give up, try again
But I must warn you though
Devils don’t like to see you grow
They’re gonna try to stop you at fear
Tell lies in your ear
They don’t want you to try again
That’s why they tell you that you’ll never win
But I am letting you know
If you ever fall
Just pick up the phone and give me a call and I’ll help you
I’ll help you
Oh yeah, oh oh ohhh oh oh
Get back up and try again
Oh oh ohhh oh oh
Don’t give up, try again
Oh oh ohhh oh oh
Keep the faith and you will win
Get back up and try again
Get back up and try again
Oh you will win
