Dream On Dreamer

They say that I am a daydreamer
My head up in the clouds
Will never amount to anything
That's their opinions and that's quite alright
For anything that has ever came to pass
Started with one single persons dream
A person who refused to give up
When all other thought it was insane
Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean 
He knew that it was round
If he hadn't believed in this
We'd all be afraid to travel beyond
For we'd all drop off the face of the earth
Everyone else always knew it was flat
Edison flew his kite with key
Into a thunderstorm
He knew he would get a spark
Yet he found electricity
Thank God for his crazy mind
Or we would all be in the dark
Just another of examples
Of frutation coming to light
If ever you dare to dream a dream
Believe with all your might
You may just discover the next greatest thing
The world can't live without
