starting the race

starting the race again:
good luck to myself i now send:

i have started and failed more than i want to remenber:
but i reassure myself i can win for sure:

it takes a great deal of energy to start over and over again:
but good luck to myself i gotta send:

i know the road ahead is rough:
i have traveled this road quite enough:

i know simply if i believe :
then matter of factly i will achieve:

if a person really wants something bad enough. it will be done:
if a person wants to become the champion they will be second to none:

there will always be obstacles in the road ahead for sure:
with preserverence i must endure:

i want to be the champion that i know that i am:
i want to be a lion not a lamb:

so its time now to start this race:
its time now to move ahead and pick up the pace:

the only thing that can hold us back is our own self:
to become my own champion will be my genuine wealth:

i want to shine at my absolute very best:
i dont want to walk around so shy and so much less:

im starting the race again right here right now again:
good luck to myself once again i send:
