This song is about taking on a great challenge. Others have tried and failed, and many view the obstacle as insurmountable. But determination pushes you on because the goal is worthwhile.
I like how the person in this song reflects on how far they've already come. The fear of losing or wasting all that progress encourages them to keep going. And then there's my favorite lines in the song:
"pulling myself up by a rope I better my view"
"the only thing in sight is what I must do"
So even though they see how far they still have to go, they don't think about giving up. Instead of seeing the actual obstacle, all they see is what needs to be done. Failure isn't an option to them. As they reach the end, they're probably looking back at all the people who said it couldn't be done, or at someone who got discouraged and gave up.
