Life Is a Race
When an athlete sets for a race,
He is determined to finish the contest.
He may win or he may lag,
But lays himself onto the track.
Life is nothing but a race,
Where we are our own adversaries.
We may fail and we may blunder,
But to carry the day we must encounter.
As practice lays an athlete to be on the track,
Our childhood nurtures play the same role.
And when he sets for the race,
It's our teenage to follow the right stage.
When the race begins,
It's actually our career begins.
And while it concludes,
We overcome all hurdles and seclude.
