Slim to None, oh how the odds have turned
Slim to None, my fate has been spurned
In this world of chaos and despair
I am but a mere pawn, tossed in the air
Slim to None, my dreams were once grand
Slim to None, now just grains of sand
Fading away, with each passing day
Leaving behind a bitter dismay
Slim to None, a glimmer of hope remains
Slim to None, though it may seem in vain
I cling to it, like a drowning man
Inch by inch, I'll do all I can
Slim to None, my courage may falter
Slim to None, my spirit may alter
But deep in my heart, I know
That I'll keep fighting, till I reach my goal
Slim to None, the odds may be against me
Slim to None, but I refuse to flee
From this battlefield, I'll rise up strong
Proving to all, that I too belong
To this race called life, where the stakes are high
And the road ahead, is not always clear
But I'll keep moving, with my head held high
For Slim to None, is not something I fear
For I am a fighter, a warrior at heart
And though the odds may seem worlds apart
I'll keep pushing forward, with all my might
Till Slim to None, becomes Slim to All, in sight
For nothing is impossible, as long as I believe
And with each step taken, I'll start to achieve
My dreams and aspirations, that once were just words
Now turning into reality, flying free like birds
Slim to None, a distant memory
Slim to All, my new destiny
For I have beaten the odds, against all odds
And now I stand tall, in the face of God
For Slim to None, were just words on a page
But I rewrote my story, at every stage
And now I've come out, on the other side
With a smile on my face, and a heart full of pride
Slim to None, I'll never say again
Slim to All, is now my refrain
For I am a force, to be reckoned with
And Slim to None, is just a myth
For with determination, and a heart full of fire
I've risen above, Slim to None's dire
And I'll keep soaring, to new heights
For Slim to All, is now within my sights.
