It' Was You Who Put 'It' There

Kick the mud off of those boots,
And don't drag your mind...
Through,
Drenches you've committed.
As if to call on faith,
To quit quick.

Stand up.
Look forward and be tough.
It is going to be rough...
Even for those ready.
It is going to be rough...
And with discipline,
You will remain steady.

Strengthen that mentality!

Kick the mud off of those boots,
And don't drag your mind...
Through,
Drenches you've committed.
As if to call on faith,
To quit quick.

Admitting you have grown tired of it!
But 'it' was you who put 'it' there!
