Evolved From a Wish
Drawn by rage and afraid to be free
Withering like roses sunk within the sea
Believing in what my heart teaches me to do
Telling me to act out and show them what my mind knew
Scared to pursue what I was born to do
I can't believe the opportunity I almost blew!
Someone or something wanted me to get out there and pass!
Being in Law Enforcement at last!
My dreams do come true if you first dream
Dreams aren't as hard as everyone makes them seem
I want to make a difference in people's lives
And stop the violence made by guns and knives
From now on I want to be "sworn-in" and enlist
I pursued a dream that first evolved from a wish
Starting at the bottom first is right
Nobody expects you to learn it overnight
Working with the best of all will rock!
On my educational journey to becoming a cop
