Fight for THE light

Hey Joe,
don't worry,
this is a true story.

Its a story about fail,
story about hail,
story about me breaking barrier of sound,
then smashing into ground,
into pieces..

dividing,
disappearing,
reassembling,
reappearing.

With one goal,
to hit a wall,
even harder,
until my persistence,
endangers my existence.

You see,
I'm not a lucky man,
no matter how fast,
or where I ran,
results always say that I'm last.

But I don't care,
My mind is high,
somewhere in the sky

I fight,
I try,
So many times, I touched the light,
never let it out of my sight,
but I cannot make it stay,
it always goes, slips, away.

Some stupid reason,
some brutal error,
a treason,
a terror,
a freaking prison of emotions,
Suddenly I find my self in a void, 
Self-destroyed...Again!

And then I ask myself,
am I a optimist?
a positive guy,
ask my self, what is going on? Why?

I Analyze
Reanalyze
I make a plan,
I make it work!
I stand up
I'm a man!!

I Never give up,
I Never give in,
I feel the thirst,
I want to be first!
Sadly,
so badly!!!

One day I will be,
Then world will see,
who I am,
world will see,
who I'm meant to be!!

But everybody keeps asking me,
When? When? When? When? When?
Should I maybe ignore them until then?

    Sort of reads like a private machiavellian self-questioning. An identity quest to reveal the true self
