My Name In Lights
Written By: D. Collins 2/8/26
It is already written I will rise like the sun.
Built from a mold that stands second to none.
Attempts to erase my history will not hold me down.
When it is said and done I will be world-renowned.
There is no ambition in skipping through life.
So, I'm on a mission to see my name in lights.
Leave an indelible mark to show what I did.
And have the longevity of Egypt's pyramids.
I will tread on ground no man has been.
Stand atop the mount in the very end.
It will spark young people to reach new heights.
Give them the hunger to see their name in lights.
