I Made It To The Starting Line
Make ready for life's escapades:
the adventurous pranks.
Revelry is the masquerade
mingled with tugs and yanks.
Prepare to voice from your design
"I made it to the starting line."
Make ready for life's unforeseen:
the unexpected turns.
Pliancy is the trampoline
mingled with bounds and churns.
Prepare to voice from your design
"I made it to the starting line."
Make ready for life's marathon:
the long-distance footrace.
Endurance is the paragon
mingled with grit and grace.
Prepare to voice from your design
"I made it to the starting line."
