«Dear Hard-Work, I used to hate you, when you called my name, I heard it and ran away from you, when I knew you were coming I used to hide from you, when you influenced others to talk to me, I quickly made excuses to get away from you. Afraid of the pain because I didn’t want to get hurt, afraid to fail so I didn’t even try and afraid of your name because what you have done to others. Who do you think you are, making me so afraid of who you are, reflection in the mirror, shadow behind me, I take one step and you’re still ahead of me, sweat on my face, tears in my eyes, I keep on going, I heard you tell no lies. You turn the poor to rich, F’s to A’s, is there anything you can’t do?

Now look at me, you made me who I am today, because of you I have this never losing never giving up attitude. quitting? that’s not in my vocabulary, when they quit I keep going, when they sleep I work harder, when they say that I can’t and count me out, I show them that I can, when I tell them about my dreams and they laugh, I make sure I laugh last.

I’m a dream chaser, that means I chase my dreams and no one else’s. Only I can defeat me. It’s me against this work you put on me. There’s no losing, I will not lose.

I came this far and I’m not stopping now. Oh Hard-Work those who know we’re right, you do pay off, and because of that, I love you, how can I not? I’m no longer hiding from you, I’m waiting for you, matter of fact, where are you, I need you, because in hard work, I trust.»
