Chin up, Kid

As reluctant as you may be this morning

Rub the sleep out of your eyes

Life so far may not have felt quite rewarding 

But you have potential that reaches the skies

Look around and you just might find yourself again

Today doesn’t have to be the best day ever

No one said you need to pretend

Gamble your choices and pursue your endeavors

We’re all still new to this just like you

Your shoes hitting the red bricks of Delaware

Let this town transform your worldview 

Even when you find that there’s only so much you can bear

Hold on to this newly found knowledge

Chin up, Kid, you’ve made it to college
