Requirements

People set rules and standards
to block your entrance in 
but you should never feel discouraged
the key is just around the bin 

Sometimes you need to prove 
why you deserve access to a room 
nothing in life comes easy
and so I take the challenge 
and never let it sway me. 

The strength that I have in me
is so strong and I'll jump in
the barrow head first 
and roll to my destination

So you can set your requirements
put the bar real high 
I will break through 
the best way I know how
by using my mind.
