Climbing lifes ladder
Is not that easy to do
When you think you're winning
The fight is not yet through
You must keep on climbing
Never looking behind
If you take it for granted
Theres something you will find
You will find that life
Has its ups and downs
If you loose self confidence
It will beat you to the ground
Nothing in life is worth having
If it comes on a sliver platter
But to most people
It doesn't really matter
All good things
Must come to an end
But if you slip and fall
Get up ! you're out to win !
