Gymnastics takes so much dedication,
You can't help to build frustration.
When your hands are rough,
and the bars are just too tough,
You're whole body is sore,
You are just dreading floor.
When injuries aren't able to heal,
And it just hard to deal,
It's all to hard,
Your life is just scarred,
Nerves shaking,
Bodies aching,
Hearts breaking,
Is it worth taking?
On Sunday everybody stays in,
Bur you're training to win.
When everybody's out,
And you just want to shout,
There's to much stress!
But then you remember the price of success.
So we relook the situation,
Look at your inspiration,
Find a new admiration,
Use our imagination,
And we have a new appreciation,
For our competitive game,
And one day well rolls to fame,
This is us,
This is our life.
