The 5 O’Clock Rush

foot to pedal
pedal to metal
steering wheel gripped
destiny awaits at my goal

focused on destiny
competitors in every lane
weaving and keeping
my eyes on the road

weary from the dogfight
as sharp pains emanate
from bruises incurred
from a dog eat dog world

got to stay awake
got to pay attention
got t keep my foot steady
my mind on where I’m going

foot to pedal
pedal to metal
steering wheel gripped
destiny awaits at my goal
