Another victory, another conquest, they\u2019re calling you the best of the best,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Feeling untouchable, invincible, no one\u2019s knocking you off of your pedestal,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pushed yourself day by day, paid your dues and kept your peers at bay,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Surveying your kingdom, sitting pretty atop the exceptional and gifted,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Better bask in your glory now, it\u2019s all temporary,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nothing lasts forever, you acquire losses, eventually,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The standouts aren\u2019t immune, sooner or later your hallmarks to greatness wither away and fade,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No ifs or buts about it, Father Time gives but also takes,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then there\u2019s your competition, you fended off the majority, now here comes the next wave, passing the bar you\u2019d set previously,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You push and you push, trying to stay ahead like before,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For a while you hold your own, before they shift into another gear, leaving you in the dust, just as you\u2019d feared,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You\u2019d already reached your ceiling, it\u2019s built solid, for you unpassable,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They\u2019re leaping over it, no shame in it, there\u2019s always someone better,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Doesn\u2019t diminish from your legacy, without it there are no standards to be passed,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You set the bar, earned their respect, sit back and relax,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But here\u2019s another fact, the torch must be passed,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No one holds onto it forever, only \u2018til another comes along,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Look to the mirror, that\u2019s your competition, forget about the others,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the end it\u2019s you against you, their admiration are merely byproducts,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Go as far as you can, do your best for yourself,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No such thing as better than the rest, who wants that type of pressure on themselves?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lift ain\u2019t no race, certainly not one based on comparisons,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Leave that to the birds while you build your own kingdom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
