On Confidence

ON CONFIDENCE Trust comes from letting go of fear Release these bonds they keep you there The wings of faith will let you rise Above the negative thoughts and lies. Be explicit in saying what you desire Dedication and focus will get you higher Give thanks and expect a positive result Then you realize it wasn’t that difficult. Your thoughts have much power and energy Which create your experience and identity Because “as a man thinketh, so is he” Be conscious and know that’s what you’ll see Step into your blocks and run your race Confidence always gets you first place You have worked hard and passed the test So go out there and show them your best. They’ve taped and studied your every move Hoping they’ll get the very same groove They visit ask questions do a DNA test In the quest for answers why you’re the best. They come with a vengeance, they cannot see why This tiny country should be passing them by So know you’ll be challenged in a very real way For Beijing left a mystery unsolved to this day Written for our Jamaican athletes Winsome Miller-Rowe
