Dynamo
If you were born to be what you want to be
to believe your needs are yours to achieve
born to breathe the air of success
every failure a course of progress
to give it your all and then find more
to stand up tall right after you fall
and never give in and always endure
widen your view and seek to explore
carve out the path like no one before
In the face of defeat deface it with force
not narcissistic but humble and pure
confident not cocky transparent to the core
giving opportunities out as you go
never feel threatened and help others grow
the best version of you helps the next person too
when advance isn’t chance but purposely proved
and admit when it's chance because that happens too
don't make out and fake out the intention to do
when you don’t know ask questions and listen to answers
observant occurrence in all circumstances
always knowing there’s somebody better
always seek to be somebody better
never completed and never fulfilled
forever reaching increasingly skilled
always have hunger like when you were younger
drive up when you’re under the lightning the thunder
dynamo will of the furthering hunter
nothing’s enough wanting more out of habit
calling their bluff as you reach out and grab it
pushing the boundaries far off the radar
when you are the greatest seek to be greater
it’s about your desires and making them true
that means you do whatever you need too
it’s not what you are it’s about what you do
and you will do things nobody ever knew
if you were born to a set destiny
then you don’t need inspiration from me
you just need to believe it is yours to achieve
don’t let the negative energy breed
from those around you who you do not need
they arrived in your life but they don’t need to stay
it’s you who decides if they stay or go away
when you realise you must act the same day
take the one chance it’s the one that they gave
when you grow old you can look back and say
I lived my life and I did it my way.
