Lyrics for The Good Thing

I will fight, will fight with my heart I will fight, will fight with understanding In my mind, the weather never changes Skill overcomes, unfavorable conditions A straight line exists between me and the good things I have found the line and its direction is known to me Absolute trust keeps me going in the right direction Any intrusion is met with a heart full of the good thing Try to compare what I am presenting You will meet with much frustration Try to find, similar situation You will always find the same solution As the heart finds the good thing, the feeling is multiplied Add the will to the strength and it equals conviction As we economise, efficiency is multiplied To the extent I am determined the result is the good thing
