Buckle up, stay down, and ready yourself quick
For now take off time dawns, no turning back
Nearing the hill nimble like sonic sound
Reaching stops and bumps but never giving slack

Staying humble and waiting for clearance
Never gave in and now the time has came
Coming from hopelessness to confidence
Now the time, stepping up for the big game

Strange feeling of the end filling your body
But Now you wanting it to never conclude
You now feel like it is a born hobby
Now when you engage, it betters your mood

Sometimes good results can finish with tears
You will still boomerang right back next year
