At what speed can you move
Many factors come into play
Which way is the wind blowing?
How many traffic lights can there be?
Is my rudder deep enough to keep me from swaying?
Should all my energy be taken up in worry?
Does criticism slow me down?
Or do I let it anger me to the point of listlessness?
No, because my resolve lies in bigger things
What does the word struggle mean?
Do we all not confront it on a daily basis?
Is everything we do supposed to be easy?
I have never seen it that way
There are always obstacles
Something getting in our way
Uphill seems to be the only route
When our goals are admirable
Often roads are not smooth
Depression could be a factor
But I try to cast it aside
I try not to be at the mercy of anyone
Keep my balance; it is a very rough ride
I think of where I am going
How many have gone before
Follow the methods of the successful ones
Or forge my own in the left over fire
I will get there and speed does not matter
