Follow the leader, follow the rules, follow me
Follow your dreams.
Follow your dreams;
When you’re lost,
scared,
alone
When you know where you are
and who you are
and where you’re going.
Dreams hold it all together,
whether it’s falling apart or not.
Dreams keep you grounded and lift you to the sky.
Follow your dreams wherever they want you to go.
If the world doubts you, push it aside.
Follow your dreams, not theirs.
That’s how you get where you want to go,
That’s how you become who you need to be.
If they tell you that you can’t:
Laugh!
And keep going.
When you’re in that place where your dreams took you,
look back at them.
Then you can say See! I told you.
I told you.
I told you to follow your dreams.
