Wash Rinse Repeat

I have trained my whole adulthood for the challenge of this day. 
The toil and sweat and sacrifice, the monotony of drill, 
All those years of manning up to my ambition.
I have wrestled the beast and disciplined my will.
I mean to vanquish my opponent for the golden prize
I'll enter the ring and trust my luck to fate.
I have trained my whole adulthood for the challenge of this day. 
When I rise again come dawn, I will reiterate.
