Passed up many opportunities Looking for the right thing Found myself under the load Trying to fight my way back up again I stepped up on what was holding me down One thousand steps I made Discouragement was one step After that Each step got harder Self doubt came into play I thought I could was overshadowed By you can't Stop while your ahead   The closer I got to the top My body began to weaken I  paused for a minute Then continued It seemed I had reached the top It was hard Because my legs were shot What I saw amazed me Just steps And more steps in front of me Believe it or not I didn't give up I persevered Until I was no longer on the bottom But rising like the sun Hot and untouchable Bright and overwhelming Unstoppable

Passed up many opportunities Looking for the right thing Found myself under the load Trying to fight my way back up again I stepped up on what was holding me down One thousand steps I made Discouragement was one step After that Each step got harder Self doubt came into play I thought I could was overshadowed By you can't Stop while your ahead   The closer I got to the top My body began to weaken I  paused for a minute Then continued It seemed I had reached the top It was hard Because my legs were shot What I saw amazed me Just steps And more steps in front of me Believe it or not I didn't give up I persevered Until I was no longer on the bottom But rising like the sun Hot and untouchable Bright and overwhelming Unstoppable
