Driver of Victory
The road was taken, the heart was shaken
The gears were meshed and wound
As the fear of acceleration and speed abounds
The pedal was thrust hard down
The race embarked in the heat
Of its fate to risk the loss or win the feat
For we are the drivers of our destiny
We are the force that drives victory
We choose our vehicles, our speed and velocity
We appoint our roads and captain the course
We are the mechanics of our own odyssey
Our journeys are united in trusting the wheel horse
Which stages the power to sovereign our course
We rein the bridle to command intrinsically
So when our hearts surge to propel the courage of us
To encompass the weight of angels to give us wings - to set us free
To lift our spirit of the chase to our own Nimbus
We can lay in the arms of resolution and contentment to be
The determination of our desires, dreams and devotions thus
Exalting ourselves to our purest perfection
I am the Driver of Victory
To challenge life, to set it free
And be on the road with the greatest degree
For that is the true victory
In becoming what I may be
