Sudoku is a challenging game...

You have 9 rows,

9 numbers,

And 9 columns to solve.

Sudoku is a challenging game....

I play Sudoku when it seems like I need to

It's very challenging to me.

Takes my mind off some things

You see,

when it comes to Sudoku

You have to have a strategy

You can't just go straight in,

Because that's when things will get complicated. 

Sudoku is a challenging game....

Because not only do you have to put 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 numbers in each column or row

You have to make sure that they don't repeat

If they do,

Well it looks like you didn't solve the game

You have to start over

Sudoku is challenging for me,

But so is life

Life is a Sudoku board

You have 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 numbers to solve in each column or row

You make one mistake then you have to start over

It gets frustrating 

When you are so close to solving it

So close to reaching your goals,

But for you to make that one mistake

And for you have to start over

Life is a Sudoku board 

Because you have 9 tries

9 chances

And 9 rows or column to solve

If you don't solve them, 

Then they will never be fixed.

They will always be right there in pen or pencil

Just when you are about to finish,

You make one wrong move 

It seems like you have to start over yet again 

Life is a Sudoku board

You seem to never win.

You always seem to make mistakes,

And it doesn't take seconds or even minutes before you break

You break, not because of the game becoming so challenging,

You break because you made so many mistakes

The mistakes you can never take back

You look at a Sudoku board

And you see you have one more space

One more space to fill

But what if you make another mistake?

You check one more time

All that seems to be missing is a nine

So without wasting your time

You put that nine in.....

You put that nine in

And things seem to be okay

Everything great

You finally solve the Sudoku! 

You finally won!

But why do you feel so sad?

Why do you feel so sad? 

You won

You solve the problem

But look around 

And see there's more Sudoku to solve.

This is why Sudoku is challenging for me

It's seems to be never-ending.
