Setting Goals beyond the Sky

Aiming high, you set your sights
On goals that seem to touch the lights
But if you fall, and failure comes
You'll land on heights that others call their summits

Your failure will be higher than their win
A testament to the scale you had in
Your dreams, though unfulfilled, declare
A courage that most others never share

So set your goals beyond the sky
And if you fail, don't ask why
For in the attempt, you'll find your pride
And heights that others envy, you'll reside.
