Sometimes

Sometimes you got to win ugly

Grind it out and endure the pain

When the odds seem stacked against you

When you lose as much as you gain

If you want to emerge victorious

Expect some wounds and some scars

This life will never be easy

If you set your sights on the stars

But if you commit to the struggle

And set your head for the fight

You’ll emerge out of the dark tunnel

And find your way to the light.

Life rewards those who take the shot

When the game is on the line

So muster up your courage

Now is your time to shine
