If I saw a mountain, I would climb it, until I reached it's peak
With a drive to stay alive and prove to myself I'm not too weak
Battling self doubt, playing fair as not to cheat
Casting aside all of my flaws, none that I would keep
Scaling the walls to gain perspective, if blindfolded I'd still peek
Protecting secrets and all slander, Holding back with tongue in cheek
Chasing after unrealistic goals,
Whether too high or way too deep
Burning all my bridges, the only option left to leap
With no courage left inside me or the faith I ought to seek
Mustering up enough resilience
To separate the normal from the freaks
Gushing perspiration, soaked from head down to my feet
Drenched and sweating bullets, so much that I thought I sprung a leak
Words too often come without action,
It's plain knowledge talk is cheap
