Unveiling the Journey: Hard Work, Persistence, and Self-Belief
Lyrics
If you're wondering where I'm at
Expressing the location or state of the speaker
I'm putting in my hours
Engaged in dedicated work
Got more thorns than I do flowers
Experiencing more difficulties than pleasures
Hard work got dirt all on my hands
Hard work has left marks of effort
And when I fall right down, yeah
Despite setbacks, willing to persist
I do it again
Resilience to face challenges repeatedly
Some might get there overnight
Recognition that success takes time
But I don't run to the spotlight
Not seeking immediate attention or fame
Take my sweet time down that road
Choosing a deliberate and steady pace
I know I'll get there but I got a ways to go
Awareness of a journey ahead
Cause I can't fly without a runway
Needing preparation or groundwork to achieve goals
Run a mile without the sweat
Acknowledging the effort required
Yeah I'm gonna make it someday
Confidence in future success
But I can't leap without a step
Recognizing the need for gradual progress
I know that I'm right on track
Belief in being on the right path
If I'm being honest
Speaking truthfully about the situation
Well, if I'm gonna shine I gotta polish
Understanding the necessity of improvement and refinement
When the doubt creeps in I tell myself
Encouraging oneself in moments of uncertainty
Girl keep going and you will
Motivating oneself to persist despite obstacles
Climb that mountain rock by rock
Conquering challenges gradually
Because I'm on my grind and I ain't gonna stop
Determined commitment to continuous effort
Until I reach the top
Having a specific goal to achieve
But I can't fly without a runway
Reiteration of the need for preparation
Run a mile without the sweat
Reaffirming the effort required for progress
Yeah I'm gonna make it someday
Confidence in eventual success
But I can't leap without a step
Acknowledging the importance of taking small steps
I know that I'm right on track
Confidence in being on the right path
If I'm being honest
Speaking truthfully about the situation
Well, if I'm gonna shine I gotta polish
Understanding the need for improvement and development
Watch me
Displaying determination and progress
On my way up
Expressing the ascent to success
I'll be shining
Confidence in shining despite challenges
When the day's done
Anticipating success by day's end
Like a star glows in the night
Comparing oneself to a shining star despite adversity
When the time is right
Belief in success occurring at the right time
But I can't fly without a runway
Reiteration of the importance of preparation
Run a mile without the sweat
Reaffirming the effort needed for progress
Yeah I'm gonna make it someday
Confidence in eventual success
But I can't leap without a step
Acknowledging the need for incremental progress
I know that I'm right on track
Confidence in being on the right path
If I'm being honest
Speaking truthfully about the situation
Well, if I'm gonna shine I gotta polish
Understanding the need for improvement and refinement
