The race of life.

i fell down in the race of life
it caused excruciating pain
my dreams were shattered my goals were knifed
but what's to stop me try again?
i'll pick myself up and start to run
and never rest until im done
i need to rush, i need to hurry
i've got a long way to close the gap
till sweat makes my eyes all blurry
i'll not stop nor ease my step
now i'm way behind i've lost my lead
but i'm still in line and won't lose my head
what did u expect me to do, to sit and cry?
to bawl my eyes out until i die?
no sir no, i ain't doing that
where i'm going i'm already late
where does it all end u might wonder
it's where i fall still and move no further
to let the younger stronger pass as i fade to death upon the grass
but it's not now, it's not, my time is yet to come
my journey is yet over, barely has it begun
you're running this race too, you know, this race of human life
stop and enjoy the scenery or you'll be past in a blink of an eye
yeah there are rocks and stones along the way
but don't we all face them every day?
choose your steps wisely or you might just stumble and fall
one wrong move and you might just lose it all
this race ain't about who comes out top
but how we run it until we stop
take heed my friends, run like the wind
i hope we're all in the same place right at the end
