My Dreams Rise With Me
Tomorrow is not just another day.
It’s an opportunity,
A chance;
The potential for greatness lies in the word: Tomorrow.
But I lay in my bed TODAY.
Today is a day,
Today is the day.
Happiness is on the way.
Here it comes.
And there it went.
Another five minutes that I could have been
Dreaming
But now I know what they are
I understand what they mean,
And that’s all I’ll ever need.
But
Now I’m too deep in it
I’ve been working too hard
Stretched every limit
And it won’t be enough.
For anyone but me.
I’m something more,
I have something to wake up for
My dreams.
They’re calling,
Beckoning,
Cheering me on.
I’m pushing,
Grinding,
Failure had to be wrong.
There’s no contest
If it’s ME versus the rest,
Better isn’t half of the best.
It comes from deep in the chest
It’s all in the heart
I knew all along where to start,
I just had to play the part
When my dreams started falling apart.
Wake up.
No more pieces.
I am whole.
I have no more regrets
Nothing anyone needs to console.
My power replenished
My faith restored
Nothing more needs to be said,
Too many dreams wait
to be explored.
