Success


I dream it

I breathe it

I feel it

I want to be it

Success

 

The stress, the struggle, the education, the fear, the need, the desire.

Limits are included, but not limited alone.

The flow has to happen, to be, become, and continue on.

I want to be there, I want to be gold.

 

Strive, strive, and strive again.

Educate yourself, don't wonder, don't judge.

Keep going, chin up.

Plead, and be, just be.

 

Want and love.

Be what you want, go for it, don't stop.

However, do what is necessary.

Giving up, what is that?

 

Tears, bruises, ups fall down, all around.

Books, faith, experience, let's become.

The world always only wants number one.

Can't stop, won't stop, don't stop, can't stop.

 

Six years, two years, four years of school, add four more to get it up, four more and maybe you're there, not yet keep going we only want the best.

Tried what does that mean, money is all.

First place or no place we know how it is.

 

I dream it

I breathe it

I feel it

I want to be it

I will be

Success
