Hold me brother of my fate Push me still till ache cries in me Show me deeds that only make me sudate I prithee thee let out no pity For I must needs be trudge in my plight Secure my place of abode amidst the wild Rub shoulders with giants like David Show me no mercy but immense duty That I will feel in my veins and cry in enjoying it Measure me by inexplicable quest I pass through by pyrrhic victory Make me attempt the unsurmountable feats that makes me feel weak I’m almost there just some years to go Show me where glory reigns Show me where champions only live Show me how real it is to survive by pushing hard My eyes see the medallion Hold me not back to lose the prize Now or never many are on track Running as swift as the cheetah to overtake Show me Mount Everest that I may climb as an exercise Or the Wall of China that I may build an inner Peace only by fighting my way through the walls If I fail I will not blame myself I will blame time for running too fast And destiny for not being helpful I will mostly blame you my rabbi For using the wrong tactics to train me Don’t relent I will work hard, make my exercise Energy sapping. I enjoy being strong by toiling I need must not give up; my hustling will pay.
