I mixed up the numbers. I swung too late. I hurt my friend. My project didn’t turn out great. I lied. I made a mistake. I feel overwhelmed, I feel ashamed, I want to find someone else to blame But I’ll take a great big breath, and say: It’s alright, It’s OK I made a mistake today I figure out where I went wrong Repair where I can then move along It’s alright, It’s OK I can find help along the way Everybody makes mistakes Learning & Skills Mistakes When I’m practicing a skill, Or learning something new At the desk, on the field I’ll make a mistake Or two (or maybe 32) My brain may tell me I just don’t know, but this is my chance to learn and grow I retrace my steps and practice more, Then I’ll do things I couldn't do before For anything I want to be Mistakes are part of my journey I’ll take a great big breath, and say: Chorus: It’s alright, It’s OK I made a mistake today I figure out where I went wrong Repair where I can then move along It’s alright, It’s OK I can find help along the way Everybody makes mistakes Values mistakes As I grow to be a truer version of me I make mistakes with values, like kindness or honesty My brain may tell me that I’m the worst But mistakes do not define my worth I recognise what I did or said And make a plan to move ahead Relationships mistakes I make mistakes with others As I try to be a friend Sometimes I don’t listen or share, Sometimes I offend My brain may tell me It’s too tough Or that I’m not good enough But I can try to see it through their eyes own my part, and apologize “I’m so sorry. I can see how that was hurtful. What can I do?” CHORUS REPEAT
