Dreaming is wishing
Hoping for a better life
A life that no one expects
A dream without a wish is just a plan
For one that expects is not a wish

Dreaming can be forever
Working till the end of day
On a dream that can live on forever
For one does not know if this dream is going to come true

Dreaming could lead you to destiny
A destiny that is forever thought about
A life that has never been seen before
For your dream could become a reality

The possibilities are endless until
someone take that dream and crushes it right in front of you.
Endless hours and years of work all to be criticized and ridiculed
For this person once gave me a chance and I took that chance to show them my all
The feeling of not being good enough was more then I felt
For I dreamed a dream that I thought I could make into a reality

In reality they were just greedy and just wanted money
Money one like me does not have
For ones greed they told me they give me a chance
A chance that was never to become a reality
A dream I dreamed so long that in my eyes was possible

Adults always tell you to not give up on your dreams
But to me it was the end
Until one said something wise

"A dreamer will have many obstacles in her life but the thing that makes her a dreamer is that she gets right back up on her feet and never gives up!"

For I am that dreamer that will not be criticized and ridiculed by one that is greedy
For I will follow my dreams to prove that I can be successful no matter what state I'm in
For I will be the one that proves the them wrong
I will find someone who supports my dream
The efforts I make in the studio
Me alone with a bare and a wooden floor
For I am one powerful dreamer!
