Failure
I strive to be the greatest, the best
 I work, never give my mind a rest
 I put out blood, sweat, and tears by the end
 I overwork, my body aches but it will mend
 Every day, I am my own worst enemy
 But to do good, I need to believe in me
 If I'm not hard on myself who will be?
 I push myself because i want to see
 What i can do and what my limits are
 If i never try I'll never know how far
 
 After all of the crap I put myself through
 Failure will always be haunting me
 It shows up no matter what I do
 It takes my mind unwillingly
 
 Do you know what it's like to watch all you worked for fall apart?
 It's the worst feeling and I have no clue how to restart
 I never want to give up but when you begin to fall
 It is hard to shake it off and just stand tall
 
 My life is a competition 
 And I won't finish last 
 I will come out on top
 No matter of my past
 Failure is unavoidable
 It happens to the best of us
 What I've learned is just give your mind a rest
 and you will carry on, dont worry.
 
 Failure is a word that will alwasy haunt me 
 I will overcome it, strength is my key
 I will use my strength and strive
 Defeat all and come out alive.
