I purposely set the mark high
about a half a mile from Heaven
to obtain I must practically fly
plus possess a pocketfull of sevens
all is awry again my shot is short
as my endeavor on this daunting task
i do so with no means of support
although my suffering is bountiful
and my victories all are grudging
I know it is better for the line to tow
then to quit and end up with nothing
never tally the number of stumbles
but do always get back in line
for if and when my dreams do come
this surely will be the reason why
I am at my best when I go at it alone
never been a follower or a leader
nothing like a conquest of your own
to make the dream that much more sweeter
failure is like sand running through your hands
oppurtunity is gone yet it can be gained again
