I Dance in the Rain

The whole world is asleep
And I dance in the rain,
I sweat it out so that I could  fain.

The dream can only come true
When you endure the pain,
Of engrossed and  gruelling
And long lasting train (training).

I have absolute faith
In the goal I chase,
I commit to succeed
In this arduous rat race.

I'll plan and prepare and present
Altogether new me,
By setting high  standard
And following my own decree.

Masses call me fool
They call me insane,
I follow my own decree
And I dance in the rain
And I dance in the rain.
