In my mind

Locations

Saratoga Springs
United States

People have told me 

that I cannot make it

But they just refuse to see

that I'm a blockbuster hit

 

Eyes looking down on me

Peering with hatred and jealousy

Do they know the world is we

Every birth here is a legacy

 

Time is running out 

Not allowing the world to pause

Every silent scream is a heart's shout

But the world now has a new boss

 

Tongues that only speak of self 

Never fail to remain as gold

Kindness is shrinking into an elf

Maybe it is just turning too old

 

The world is a battlefield

I don't refuse to agree

But I am sure that its not fine

It has turned into non-malleable,hard steel

 

Victory reaches the focused

Allows access to the diligent

I aim to be a part of the greatest

Reaching success is a complement

 

I'm starting with what I see in my mirror

I'm going to prove myself

I'm going to make a difference

Letting no one find a single error

 

My heart is stronger than I think

I can go to any place I want in a wink

So, I'm opening up my mind

Ready to take on the world.
