I'm Gonna Make My Mark

I watch the world 
Changing every day
The sun comes up
But never in the same way.

Freedom calls me
To soar thru the sky
To reach for my dreams
And learn how to fly.

I want to see things
The legends foretold 
The treasures of the world
 More valuable than gold.

I want to run swiftly
Among the flowers and trees
Exploring the unknown
Carefree like the bees.

Through the dense forest
Above the tall trees
Deep in the waters 
My spirit flees.

The wind in my hair
The clouds passing by
Free as a bird
In the vast blue sky.

They say I'm young
Not responsible enough
But I will show them
I've grown tough.

I’m gonna make my mark
And show them all
I will become the legend
They tremble to call.

My courage will be known
For miles around
And my strength, though silent
Will stand its ground.
