Ambition vs Attrition

"You've got to focus on everything that lies ahead You may feel broken, but just until you change," You said Don't give up Don't give in You've got to have ambition Live for the moments in time after the tribulation's gone You've fought and you've won And now you can see how far you've come With thick skin, you now can begin to live It may feel like I've lost a part of myself along the way But that's fine with me Ambition is bound to beat attrition I'll dig down deep Don't be impatient If Rome wasn't built in a day Then how much more so will something take that cannot fade? I've been tested with fire Like coal I've come out diamond With all the dross now removed You're gonna see me shine as brightly as the expanse of heaven Bringing many to righteousness Like the stars It may feel like I've lost a part of myself along the way But that's fine with me Ambition is bound to beat attrition I'll dig down deep It may be time for me to lose The things I hate about myself They're no good for me Besides I have found all I really need It may feel like I've lost a part of myself along the way But that's fine with me Ambition is bound to beat attrition I'll dig down deep It may be time for me to lose The things I hate about myself They're no good for me Besides I have found all I really need
