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
