It was the success
Which I always ran after
spending days fetching it
In life's each chapter

I hiked the highest mountains
Dived the deepest seas
I fished the fluffiest cloud
But success was nowhere to be seen

I entered the darkest den
Climbed the highest tree
Drank the reddest blood
But success always
Ditched me!

Success was like the horse in the field
Running fast and free
failure was what I only got
When I wished taming,
The horse in the field

It was very late
When I found success
was all along in my pocket
Sitting right besides me

Success was in the journey
I took to climb the heights
It sat besides the road
Watching me days and nights

Success was not the horse
But the field it ran in
Success always held my hands
Like a silent, desired kin!

Your joy is your sorrow unmasked
Beneath the words you have never asked
You have universe in your eyes
Nobody can understand its outcries
People aren't gonna save you
The only thing they will do is argue
Your trembled hands know perfection
Make an effort to ignore mind's objection
You are only key to your soul
Follow your heart to be under control
God has made you a lodestar
You are the best the way you are
