Designed To Win

I hope that feeling I get when you win

Never ever goes away!

The sense of proudness and relief I feel

When you take the chequered flag on Sunday.

 

Every kind of emotion

Has built up throughout the race,

5 red lights, first corner, pit stops,

And constant checking of pace.

 

 

But when you cross the line to win,

And raise your fist in the air

All emotions are released

Without a single thought or care

 

Congratulations come from the radio

Along with background cheers from the team,

Because in the end it’s a team effort

And you know its not just your dream!

 

Climbing from the car

Fans and world media stand by,

Waiting for that one glimpse of emotion

Will he jump?, will he shout?, will he cry?

 

Hugs are shared

Between family and good friends

While youre surrounded by photographers,

Capturing the moment through their camera lense

 

Now in the ‘cool down’ room

You let it all sink in...

Handshakes come from the competition

Right now this feels like your best ever win!

 

Stepping out onto the podium

Colour from the ground fills your eyes.

Taking your place on the top step

You wait patiently to except your prize.

 

But first the national anthem

And all youre feeling is proud!

You’ve done this for your country,

Yourself, and this amazing crowd

 

Your handed the well deserved trophy,

That looks like a fancy tea tray!

When the celebrations are done,

It’ll be covered in champagne spray.

 

 

When the day is done and the parties are over

You cant help but grin...

You know now: youre not designed to come 2^nd, 3^rd, or 4^th,

Youre designed to win…
