Life Is Marathon

Are you ready, set and go 
Never look back just go 
The way is rough
And the journey is tough
Sometimes you cough 
Because the air is not enough
Sometimes for your survival 
As the world is waiting for your arrival
The journey is far 
Like the distant between the earth and the star 
But step by step you overcome them one by one
Turn every stone
They will start asking what have you done 
Some will say you are crazy
But in the end they find it amaze
Today many lines you had cross
To be the boss 
Was your goal in every race 
by increasing your pace
To overcome the first person
To last person
To overcome the last person
Was your mission in every season
Today you are shining like a gold 
Your story will be told 
For generation to come
You will be welcome
In their heart and soul which hold
You, where you wild never get old
As among the greatest 
And the best 
Your name will be in the history book 
For generation to look 
As their inspiration 
To do their best for their nation
