The Rise
When was it, we all learned
That soon we would find
In order to get "Ahead"
You had to leave some folks behind
And measuring success
Simply by your bottom line
Against all of the rest
And counting every dime
Reaching up To Grasp the stars
Is certainly not a crime
Just remember all those who
Helped you with your climb
