I planned it out perfect
Practiced and rehearsed it
I could see it every time I closed my eyes
Destined to make it
So close I could taste it
Only waiting for the planets to align

Walking in to take it all
But then I slip and fall

I’m at the right place
But at the wrong time
Had my one shot but forgot the line
I’m always stuck in second place
But I know one day I’m gonna win this race
Was on the right track
But took a wrong turn
Made a sure bet and I still got burned
But I’m about to catch a break
So don’t say its too little too late

Watching and waiting
But losing my patience
So I step outside to try and clear my mind
I stare at the sunset
And suddenly get it
All I have to do is make it mine

Walking in to take it all
But then I slip and fall

And I know I got a long long way to go
I know I gotta make it on my own
I gotta stand up for myself
And when I fall I’m gonna get up off the ground
Every minute every hour of every day
I can make it
I’m gonna find a way
