For dreams do die
If you not hold on as tight as you can
Forever you will cry
Feeling un-successful
Potential is just that
Pinnacle un-tapped
and everyone around you notices that
Some of those that you've helped
Will talk behind your back
While others will be happier than you'll ever be
All because excuses sung from your lips
Like the favorite mantra to sing
Life will be life
There will always be something
You're supposed to expect it as you push
So that when surprises arise
they affect you with nothing
You must, you must focus
Like zombies in trances
So you can beat the dark cloud
and your eyes will no longer
Leak and speak of sadness
So what must you do? Seek your passion.
Never mind the obstacles in your way.
Thrash them.
Mind your lips. Quiet your tongue.
Sharing your dreams with others
No longer work for you
Thine will shall be done
Discipline, determination, drive, apply.
So the next time they see youYour accomplishments should reek in the air
and you'll find that your completion begets non-gossip
and rolling of thee eyes
Envy and jealousy will merge
Because secretly they thought
You were all talk
But secretly you've snapped out of your procrastination
With excitement and great urge
With greatness as your destination
Now, their feeling some kind of way
because you've peaked faster in six months
than they have in one year
Maybe it's because they thought they had
all the time in the world
While you thought you were running out of time, oh dear!
But they didn't know that you've been through so much
that it just stifled you a bit.
This was really your pace before all of the tragedies happened.
Now, they realize, they were never on your level in the first place.
As you never left the top. You just took a break.
