Smoothing out my imperfections
Lessons learned from past rejections
How can he develop, when it hurt so bad
To reflect upon the times, he fell
And he knows
That he doesn't know where to go
He knows where he's been
Forgiven his sins
Now is time to begin,
Anew
A mistake in progress
An object to forget
Trying to improve
But not done yet
Despite the hate,
A tidal wave
Gasping for air
It's just not the same
Now he must start, again
Rinse and repeat
March in defeat
He's learnt time and again
There's no substitute for the mentor
Called pain

Smoothing out my imperfections
Lessons learned from past rejections
How can he develop, when it hurt so bad
To reflect upon the times, he fell
And he knows
That he doesn't know where to go
He knows where he's been
Forgiven his sins
Now is time to begin,
Anew
A mistake in progress
An object to forget
Trying to improve
But not done yet
Despite the hate,
A tidal wave
Gasping for air
It's just not the same
Now he must start, again
Rinse and repeat
March in defeat
He's learnt time and again
There's no substitute for the mentor
Called pain
