Overcome
Continue my journey with art and song,
Keep it within me all lifelong.
The song of my dream will overcome,
The fears of failure that have struck.
Once more, I look out at what I once was afraid.
I don’t want to give up everything I loved.
No more would I hide in the shade,
No more will I be acting tough.
The right choice I thought I made,
I’ve been in the shadow long enough.
I know I must be crazy to think like this,
I know I must be stupid to take another risk.
But I want to prove that I was right,
I wanted to know before tonight.
Imagine taking a chance,
And knowing you were right at first glance.
I wish to stand up before my enemies,
So they could see that I am not weak.
I wish to forget those unpleasant memories,
That have decided who I should become.
No matter what would be before me,
Everything I shall overcome.
And I shall continue my journey with art and song
Keep it held within me all lifelong.
The song of my dream shall overcome,
The fears of failure that have strung.
