Last Place

I need not to waste no time
Your holding me up 
The time is mine 
I can't give up 

I need to get to the finish line
That line I must cross
I'm getting to far behind
But I must not stop 

I'm here, the line isn't so far 
The power I must not lack 
One more step and I win 
But something just pulled me back.


And I finished last
