It is born in the darkness of preparation
In the blood and sweat
And the tears and gasping breaths

It is nurtured through determination
It grows through passion
And lives in triumph for the world to see

It may sound forever
Or fade in defeat

But no matter what the world sings
Victory is born when the world isn’t watching

I was inspired by @Nikesoccer and @USsoccer on twitter by their posts about the up coming World Cup in Brazil
