I Am Afraid
I am afraid of the unknown.
What will me life be like once I graduate?
I am afraid that I'll be all alone.
They say take a simple route, to just go straight.
Why go straight, when a crazier road is much more fun?
I am afraid that they'll say,
"That's not normal. Not like you at all.
You won't go anywhere acting that way."
I am afraid that they're right; I might fall.
But I am a dreamer; and dreams can go far.
They won't know what hit them
When I become a great star
With my great little gem.
Even then, I am still afraid.
