If You Want To Be Great

If you want to be great 
Greatness don't come sudden
Be ready to fight your fears
Be sure that you will sure 
Fall to rise 
Be prepared to fail greatly
As well

If you want to be great 
Be ready for focus 
Cos destraction will 
Always be common
Be alert for  your 
Motivation will at some 
Point go so low 
But remember who 
You are in other
To be who you want 
To be 

If you want to be great 
Never expect nothing 
But get something out 
From no were 
Place your competition
On your self not people
Compete with your soul self
To bring out that you in you 

If you want to be great
Let life lead you through
Stand within your line
There is your true shadow
Which abides by you all 
The time 
So be prepared to be doubted
Be prepared to fail greatly truly
If you want to be great
