Distant Things

There's a paradise, a million miles away, But still it can be clearly seen by my eyes. Would take me some time but I'll be there some day. I was in a dream all my life; now I wish to make it come true. Don't know which path to take or where I'll end up, But as long as my heart beats, life will give me a clue. That good, perfect life is a distant thing, this I know. But mama said I should keep going and fight back my fears. Hope will be my lifeguard even when I'm drowning in the sea of sorrow. And whatever it takes, I won't stop thinking of these distant things, I will walk the entire distance to set my foot on my kingdom and become a king.
