if you don't want attention, don't be good

Contributed by Beyfoxman5 on Saturday, 16th May 2015 @ 09:44:05 AM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



All these cameras in your face
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

Oh yeah…you nailed it.
"Don't let the hype go to your head."
This advice fits a lot of life.
I love the message: You are not entitled to anything until you earn it.
Should be on a billboard, says I.
Bravo.
