MISTAKES

MISTAKES

You're more than the sum of your mistakes
You left weakness, lying in the dust
It was the getting back up
Running the race
Drinking from the victor's cup
Some point their accusing fingers
Some count the times that you fall
Others stand beside you, cheering
Saying; You've got this. Never give up, above all
It doesn't matter how many times you fall
That's not what's important
Falling, doesn't matter at all
It's the effort in your rising
It's never giving up
It's the sweat, the tears
The struggling for years
It's standing, after hitting a wall
Yes, you're more than the sum of your mistakes
It's not about keeping score
It's overcoming tough breaks,
heartaches
It's all the things, you stand for
