It’s right there,
but just out of reach.
It’s clear as a cloudless sky,
But you’re too shy to try.
You can taste how close your victory is,
But a boulder stands in the way.
That boulder is your self-confidence.
It keeps you at bay,
It leads you astray.
You don’t see you’re worth,
So you stay in the dirt.
You don’t have the will to fight
You’re no longer seeing the light
But alas, I promise it’s there.
The more you give up the farther it is,
It’s off to the right, just out of sight,
You just gotta try,
you’re never gonna fly
if you never spread your wings and fall.
You’ll never succeed if you don’t believe
You’ll never be better if you don’t write that letter,
Or pick up that pen,
Don’t be stuck in a den
You have to at least try.
You will never fly if you never even try.
It seems to be fleeting,
But you’re the one retreating.
It may seem hard,
The goal may be far,
But if you don’t give up,
You’ll end up raising your cup.
