Born Actor

I am a born actor
In my heart is my script
And this world is my stage to play

I am a born actor
And am not scared of the spotlight
Because I was made for it
I feel it beam radiant colours of life over me

I am a born actor
To act the part of an eagle
Because I was made for the heavens
To soar amongst the tides of the highest
To nest on the moon and perch on the stars
To leave footprints as large as can be
Making more scholars ponder how and why

I am a born actor
My script is so simple
But I want to take time writing each scene
Sharing the messages from suspense to wow
to build my audience with bricks of how
to engrave my name in time, 
and when it ticks it points at me
and when it kicks I feel at ease
