Another day is reaching its end And my success has been nothing but pretend And as the days go rushing away I'm watching as my dreams all begin to bend Along this endless, steep mountain trail I feel that I've been climbing to no avail And I'll just keep on moving ahead And keep on blindly hoping I'll never fail CHORUS I'm trying, but I don't know if I'll succeed At this point, it's getting hard to tell ambition from greed I'm going, but where I'll get, it's hard to tell I've been doubting whether I should keep on trusting myself RAP Time - it's always drifting away You know you're going to lose at least a minute a day Don't even try to deny ever being delayed 'Cause some would surely say that that's too much attention to pay Say goodbye to the lies and the alibis 'Cause only you know whether what you're doing is right It's no use crying 'cause your time is so tight You've got to figure out why you're always going astray And why you're always afraid that it's all going to fade Ironically, you waste your time on grinding thoughts And wishing that that moment had stayed But it drifted away And you think that you'll evade it all by calling it "fate" I'd try to fly real high, in spite of The fact that I just realized that I'm losing sight of my life I'd say I'm doing okay But when it gets down to it, this is all I can say I'm trying, but I don't know if I'll succeed At this point, it's getting hard to tell ambition from greed I'm going, but where I'll get, it's hard to tell I've been doubting whether I should keep on trusting myself GUITAR SOLO Time is an opponent you can't beat How can I move with all this pressure on me? I'm trying, but I don't know if I'll succeed At this point, it's getting hard to tell ambition from greed I'm going, but where I'll get, it's hard to tell I've been doubting whether I should keep on trusting myself
