Winning

Make it through make it true Lay it bare if you dare Banish doubt make it count Look around you’ve made it there Shout it far show your scars Fill the day with twenty-four hours This is it what we’ve got Looks like but it’s ours You see this life filled with strife So much hurt so much pain Now you win now you lose One man’s loss another’s gain It wasn’t meant to be pretty Empty towns dirty cities People all around have issues Insecure,lost and misused You can choose to stay and fight Assert yourself claim your rights Or decide to turn away Make your mark another day Showing up is half the battle Knocked down back in the saddle It’s not the wins and the losses It’s the learning it’s a process At the end of the day Stop and do the math Those who've made hay Don’t have to look back.
