Dear Hard work...

Dear Hard Work

 I used to hate you, you used to call my name I heard but ran away from you. When I knew you were coming I used to hide from you.

When you influenced others to talk to me, I quickly made excuses to get away from you.

 Afraid of the pain because I didn't wanna get hurt.

Afraid to fail, so I didn't even try, 

and afraid of your name because of what you've done to others.

Who do you think you are, make me so afraid of who you are?

Reflection in the mirror, shadow behind me, I take one step and you're still ahead of me.

Sweat in my face, tears in my eyes, I keep on going,
I heard you tell no lies...
You turn the rich to poor, turn F's to A's...
Is there anything you can't do?
Now look at me, you've made me who I am today,
because of you, I have this never losing, never giving up attitude.
Quiting, that's not in my vocabulary.
When they quit, I keep going, when they sleep, I work harder.
When they say that I can't and count me out, I show them I can.
When I tell them about my dreams and they laugh, I make sure I laugh last.

I'm a dream chaser,
that means I chase my dreams, and no one elses.
Only I can defeat me, it's me against this work you put on me.
There's no losing...
I will not lose.
I came this far, and I'm not stopping now.
Oh hard work, my dad was right about you, you do pay off,
because of that I love you.
How can I not?
I'm no longer hiding from you,
I'm waiting for you.
Matter of fact, where are you?
I need you, because in hard work, I trust.
