Almost there but not quite

The road is rough and long I keep walking along But try as I might I'm almost there, but not quite! With a song on my lips, with a swing of my hips, I'm ready to take flight I'm almost there, but not quite! With a wish in my heart and a dream in my eyes Bring it on, I'll fight! I'm almost there but not quite! A little ray of hope, A light in the dark, I will not stop no matter what. I'm almost there but not quite! I won't give up and I won't stop! I will not rest till I give my best! Just hold on tight! I'm almost there but not quite! There's many a hurdle to be jumped over and I am no weakling nor a pushover! I won't be defeated, I won't lose heart! I will carry on Till my breath lasts... Don't write me off or call me a loser outright.... 'Coz I'm almost there, but not quite! I'm not in a race; I set my own pace. I know what I can do and I know what I can't! I know myself better than you do. Right? I'm almost there but not quite! I will smile through tears; I will not cry. I will spread my wings I will fly! I will go fast I will go high I'll touch the sky I'll touch the stars! Think I can't make it? Think you can break me? You think I'm weak? You think I'm lost? You are wrong, I'm strong. Like a Phoenix from the ashes I rise! Look at my eyes- they twinkle so bright, Like a fire alight, My fist is tight My heart is right. My dreams, my thoughts, My fight, my flight, My way, my path. But by bit Step by step, Here I am! I have arrived. I'm there, alright!💜
