Going, Going, Gone


Going

Where will I go?

That is the question

So many places to go, but no way to get there

Work hard, fight hard, yet so much holds me back

I want more for myself then what others want for me

Tell them, there is somewhere I want to be 

 

Going

Keep it up, don't quit now

Don't listen to those who try to put me down

You make your own future, so make it bright

All I have to do is turn up the light

 

Gone

I'll get there one day

Keep working hard, harder, some way

One day, sometime soon, I'll be on top

Never again to listen when somebody says "Stop"
