Being Successful Alone


Chained to the wall

Of the undesirable fall

Struggling against the currents of success

Every Step seems to be a backstep

Swimming through this pain

Breaking from the chain

The light of success is ahead

The struggle to continue by myself is beginning to dread

But I must continue to go ahead

Even if it means going alone

To go and reach the light of success
