The Race


Chasing the banner But the race never ends I manage a smile, engage in banter Yet there is turmoil deep within I have a fire, an eternal flame That refuses to burn out I run this race, I will not be ashamed By those who have nothing but insults to shout I will finish until the bittersweet end And I will wear the victor's crown
