Fear, a devil's trap

Fear, a devil's trap
*
What's that fear inside you;
He's stealing your confidence so what!
He's not really there like he seems
He's a ghost story don't let him scare you
Morning you'll laugh at him with a crown

Fear is the first coward afraid of success
Remember we're all chasing o'clock here
The road is long winding and full of thorns
Remember you've been here before
Strike three you'll be really out

Before o'clock strike how many times
are you going to let fear step all over you
Take a road less travelled, beat the thorns
On the other side of the finish line join joy
Before o'clock strike fear is long gone

Like all ghost stories he was not really there like he seemed, laugh now the race is done

Fear a fragment of your imagination
Hiding in the dark pouncing weaknesses
Scolding the smell of roses at your torch
Bringing in butterflies that are attracted by your bright light to kill your zest to win
