Faster
A rap inspired by the bull-headed determination to continue doing better each time you try

~ ~ ~

With a tug, I strap my goggles on
Lookin' up at the first rays of dawn
Every day, I start the same way
Faster than anypony's ever gone
A little leap and I'm off the cloud
Gravity fights me, but it ain't allowed
To stop these wings from settin' me free
Freer than anypony should ever be
And I'm off, like a rocket with a rainbow trail
The whole spectrum followin' my tail
Reachin' speeds that nothin' else exceeds
The dare to do better satisfyin' my needs
My only desire, climb higher and higher
Every single flight brings me down to the wire
'Cause even the slightest mistake
And I'm outta control, riskin' a neck break
Not that I haven't broken somethin' before
Wakin' up in the hospital, every bone sore
It just ain't enough to ever make me stop
Puttin' the pedal to the metal with all I got
And that's when it happens, an explosion of light
The signal tellin' me that I got it right
Behind me, colors stretch across the sky
My claim to fame, quite the cool sight

By the time I get home, I'll be restin' easy tonight
