(originally written 2012)
The crowd is roaring your heart is pounding
This is where it all begins
The stage is set
This is a test
Do your best
Beat the rest
Be worth remembering so they never forget
They'll beat gainst your heart
Set your body and soul apart
But you will conquer, you will prosper
Endeavour
Devour
Overpower their hate for your fate before its too late
Keep strong
This is where you belong
Your journey has begun
You lose your step once and you're already outrun
Be not just the one that ran a race
Be the one did it with grace and kept a constant pace
Be the one that's kept a smile on their face
Even when you've lost the race
You did your best
You fulfilled your quest
Pain was no pleasure
And you still didn't get the treasure
But you got more than that
A price that no currency could ever measure
Your price is high above the clouds
Your fans aren't the cheering crowds but the rejoicing angels
The one to pat your shoulder is not the man in the suit but the one on the throne
He and He alone
For they that stand with you do it out of jealousy
Authorities that claim freedom yet they can't give freedom to their hardened hearts
Green and heavy with envy
Empty prosperity
Beat against your chest for you've won the victory quest
You're bigger better braver than the rest
You weren't number one yet he says you've won
You are who you are
You've done what you could
And it's got you this far
The world got you down
The Lord got you up
And on your head He placed a crown
So put on a smile Lose that frown
In the night's darkness you waited for the sun
When everybody took a walk you were in it for the run
You had the courage not to look back but take advantage of time
You knew it'd be hard but still took the climb
You did it for yourself not for a dollar or a dime
You did your part stayed true at heart
Now they'll certainly remember you, how could they every forget?
LEBZ FOREVER
