now the dream starts with a pen in my hand
the future planned out here I stand
cause sometimes you just gotta believe
cause talent can only get that far
life is full of surprises even if its planned
that’s why nothing is ever for granted
so I expect to be rejected and neglected
but fate has it I will be respected
resurrected, in the history books I’ll be expected
cause why compete if you don’t want to win
why compete if you’re just gonna accept defeat
