Belong

Do you belong in Special Olympics?
For me to belong in Special Olympics,
First I’m an athlete
Because I want Special Olympics
To be the best I can make it to be
And I also try to help other athletes as much as I can.

Do I belong in Special Olympics?
I belong in Special Olympics
Because I’m an athlete
And I’m in ALPs.

Do you belong in Special Olympics?
Just for the medals
Or for doing your best?

Do you belong in Special Olympics?
Just for being around your friends
Or do you just like the competition?

Do you belong in Special Olympics?
To get you’re swimming times down
Or do you just like the exercise it beings?

For me belonging in the Special Olympics
Means I can help myself to help other athletes.
