''In the Quest for Excellence''

Some will ransom respect
and claim a birthright to bounty
through righteous self pity
by pointing to the evil that others have shown

In their search for glory
some find their yardstick for greatness
is wedged in the dirt
of oppression and hindrance
and measures only the depths that they've known

But you, my friend, to be truly free, must
measure the distance to the stars
from the heights that you've flown
expect a harvest of good
by the seeds that you've sown

And trust in the outcome of actions
of none but your own
