My Way

Find you a role model they said
I was young and finding my way
Find a leader then use your head
Follow that leader come what may

You cannot listen to your heart
You must learn logic and reason 
Dreams will likely tear you apart
So they said with every season

Along came a thin little man
Telling me what he had to say
He could sing if anyone can
And he said he did it his way

I found he was right - dreams do pay
I am proud I did it my way
