"Hard Work beats Talent if Talent doesn't Work Hard"


I run faster
After what I want to accomplish

It seems as though
The finish line is coming

I try running as fast as I can
Something that seems to only slow me down

I keep a slower pace
Not getting ahead of myself

The path becomes easier
Although I want to try my best

Pushing myself,
Passing others

Sometimes it seems
I’m chasing shadows

This small lane
I determine my path and keep running.

Pursuing my dreams,
I can do it.

There’s the finish line
I’m almost there!

I push all of my effort
Diving in the air

Just so I can pass that line
With all my strength, I won.
