Overtaken

What’s left is left behind
To be living in that time is a waste
And I’m focusing on this now
What stands in front of me

A challenge of the heart
A test of mental dedication
A quest for vindication
Setting us apart

It’s never ordinary
The road to glory

I can take
All that you can give
And I won’t break
’Til you’re overtaken

Have we taken this too far?
When there’s never any room for weakness
Revealing that you’re squeamish
Will only cut you down

Part of understanding
What it takes to get to where you want to be
Is understanding what you have to do
And understanding who you are
