Today Is My Day

Today is the day I will rise,the day i go to take my place,amongst the world 
and it's cruel encounters. Once I have started i cannot be stopped, my endless 
reign has begun. A tyrant i am not, but a young woman powerful with knowledge I 
am. I refuse to quit and I refuse to give up, I will not allow my fears to control me. 
Step up, stand out, and be heard is what i'll do, because today is my day and i'm 
going to be better than all of you.
