It was you that got you to this place
These lights, all this attention
And while it may not have been your intention

Remember this

Attached to victory is responsibility
I suggest a little humility
Enjoy what is here, this success
To fully understand is to be the best

Attached to accomplishments are new challenges
And the one who survives is the one who balances
The perception that he's topped the mountain
And the reality that he must start from square one again

Please remember what Tony said
Don't let the hype go to your head
It's not a bad idea to knock on wood
And if you don't want attention, don't be good [comments] => 3 [counter] => 119 [topic] => 21 [informant] => Beyfoxman5 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems ) Your Poetry Dot Com - if you don't want attention, don't be good

And while it may not have been your intention
