Embrace My Dreams
Can't seem to hold it in
Don't want to hide it anymore
Have to let it show
Let them all know
What's in my heart
I don't care what they think
Don't want to be caught in the drama
Can't let the chaos get the best of me
Must take a hold of my life
Don't want to be caged up
While the world passes by
Like the majestic dragonfly
It's time I open the door
With my own strength
To unlock the lock
Setting me free to take flight
To go off to find my happiness
If the world finds me strange
I'll take is as a compliment
Your words just make me strong
You'll never chip my soul
Don't tell me what path to take
Only I choose my own road
Obstacles that come my way
I have to learn to overcome
Mistakes can be corrected
Seeking answers to questions
A Person must grow on their own
Facing their own battles
That people don't understand
Can't let the chains of oppression
Bring me down in depression
Only I can break free of the constraints
If I wish to embrace my destiny
Let the world deal with their issues
I won't let the dissonance get me
Have to focus on the task at hand
Embracing my dreams by letting go
