The 2nd Baton I am handing on to you
Is a tube passed from runner to runner in a relay race
In this race set before you
I am here to pass the baton
Run for the win
Run to win
you will trip over some hurdles
Because this relay race is a marathon
And mehnnnn… is it long as hell
You will work die
But crazily
you honestly make it in the end
This is a weird race
you are not competing with anyone
In fact, the moment you turn your neck
you become a hurdle to yourself
In this all-out match against yourself
Baby girl… Win!
Have fun winning
Enjoy the course
Pace yourself
Take your time
It may look and feel like others are passing you by
With their finesse and awesomeness
But that is just a mirage
It is not real
because the person in the next lane is thinking the same thing about you
you will come to a time when you have to jog on the spot
To help someone else catch up
And that’s okay
It’s allowed
you are Graced like that
Not to carry anyone else’s weight
But instead, to extend the same grace you receive daily
In every lap
So, jog and help them get their tempo back up
I said jog, not stop
And the moment you get to the end of a lap
Get back on your pace and run your race
If you see them again in a different lap
That’s fine; assist them
Get them to the end of that lap
Then, back on your pace
Don’t go weary in doing good
I honestly don’t think you can
it thinks of itself as a roaring lion
Telling lies
To make you think you are out of place
That you have lost too much time
And you have not done enough
That’s a lie
Stay on course
Keep running your race
In your lane until it’s time to pass the baton
Make sure to run well
So, you can get on the pace of the next runner
Cause boi
She will be sprinting
