Dare

I see the path staring me down
I take a deep breath, feet firm on the ground
My heart’s racing fast, beating in time
Counting down
I scream at the voice inside of my head
That whispers my dreams are gone and dead
But the harder they push, the stronger I fight
For what’s ahead
I’ve charted my course, to answer the call
I’ll fight til I win, proud of the cost of my battle scars
I’ll never cave in, won’t question or pause
I’ll climb to the ledge, jump off the edge and rewrite the odds
And dare… to dream
I push through the pain, and claim what I earn
Ready to take the lessons I learn
And pass them along taking my turn
To make my mark
I’ve charted my course, to answer the call
I’ll fight til I win, proud of the cost of my battle scars
I’ll never cave in, won’t question or pause
I’ll climb to the ledge, jump off the edge and rewrite the odds
And dare… to dream
Dare
Dare to dream
