Jace is up before the sun, he greets the dawn
With his favorite paddle ready, he's feeling strong
Mind locked in, undetermined, he won't be late
His body built to fight, today's his fate
Out in the Kiowee Channel, where the waters flow
His outrigger looks sleek, it's a racing show
Face calm as the ocean, he shows no fear
His eyes shine bright, with a soul sincere
Riding on the waves, feeling so alive
Jace lives for the thrill, where the brave survive
With every stroke he takes, he's breaking through the wall
Challenging the ocean, answering her call
Against the tides, he's moving 38 miles to go
With nine hours of struggle, through wind and rain he'll flow
The current's getting stronger, it's a test of will
But Jace knows his journey, it's all about the thrill
Canoe rocking to and fro, balancing the dance
Falling in the water, but he's ready for his chance
Muster up the courage, no time to hesitate
He sees a while ahead, it's time to elevate
Riding on the waves, feeling so alive
Jace lives for the thrill, where the brave survive
With every stroke he takes, he's breaking through the wall
Challenging the ocean, answering her call
The waves may crash around him, testing every part
But deep within his spirit, beats a steadfast heart
He paddles onward, like a bird in flight
For in this endless ocean, he finds his light
Reggae rhythm flowing, guiding him along
With the Hawaiian sun rising, where he belongs
Smooth and steady cadence, let the journey start
Jace, the ocean warrior, with a sailor's heart
No signs of worry, he adapts to the change
With his paddling hand, he'll never feel strange
Each stroke is a story, each wave a new friend
In the Kaiwi Channel, where the journey won't end
The finish line in sight, he roars like a wave
With the ocean as his witness, he's determined and brave
Jace rides the tides with the sun on his face
In this vast ocean world, he's found his place
So here's to the rider, to the stories untold
To the waves that he conquers, to the dreams that unfold
With his paddle in the dawn, Jace is never alone
In the Kaiwi Channel, he's finally home
