Nor ever settle


Small town schools are filled With bias coaches of great build But you are a striker So get up like the fighter I know you truly are And it will help you go o so far Pick up the pace And win that race Take your place On that team And always look real mean Because if you quiver He is not a giver Definately not to you And that's all true You could be the best But unless You know the right person Your changes of making it will leave you cursing But don't quit You'll find your fit But it may not be Where you always see So look around The whole town And you'll discover What goods where covered And realize what you have been missing When all this time you have been kissing The wrong love that never accepted you Nor ever realized all your talenst too So when you fail Know you will sail At something new That always grew Right at your feet But your eyes never meet Until you forget That you though you fit And look for something new That can grow around you Forget the pot That always sought To put you down And create all those frowns When you can find a smile All the while You try this something new That always flew But you never knew Until you look For that better book You should never give in Nor ever settle For something that treats you like scrap metal
