RACING YESTERDAY

I'm in a race against the past
I have got to catch the future today
I let go of all the things that held me back
Not just my hands but mind on the mark
Faith for fear
Endurance for pain
Joy for tears
My mind is set

I will not loose

Yesterday is gone with its memories

Today is here with its hopes

My hands are made strong by my failures

I can't loose to this earth

Static earth...

I am the improved version of dust

I am master

This existence must obey my voice

Yesterday is gone with its loss

I may have lost but I learned in my fall

Patiently waiting for dawn while he slumbers deep from his victory celebration

Patiently waiting,

Today's victory is mine

Yesterday holds talks with today

The mistakes I showed him face me daily

I must put aside fear, unbelief and shame

I must keep my head up and look good for tomorrow

My failure gathers strength when today believes yesterday's report

My future is brighter when I can defeat yesterday

So, here we are at dawn's gate...

Sword in hand

Fear pulled to the ground

I am a victor not a victim
