The road to success is not straight, there's a curve called failure A loop called confusion, speed bumps called friends And red light called enemies, caution signs called family And flat tires called jacks but if you have a spare called determination And an engine called perseverance, with insurance called faith And the drive to make it, you'll reach a place called success Can you hear me?
