My dreams are like the stars in the sky
Seeming too far for me to just take
But to watch opportunity walk idly by
Is to accept a future mistake
Challenges are constantly thrown at me
But I take them in my stride
I still may not know what I want to be
But I refuse to let life decide
I work for the things I want and need
And luck may not always be on my side
But looking at my efforts, I know I've achieved
Because I'm happy enough that I tried
I am the master of my fate
I am the captain of my soul
The reason to why my destiny's great
Is because it's under my control
