I was bold;
Sarcastic and Young.
I could run
Ten thousand miles,
and then some.
I was never more sad
Than I ever was Happy,
and I guess I didn’t quite understand
That I really wasn’t all that lucky.
Yet, I didn’t care,
because I was as tall as the clouds.
Yet, I didn’t care,
because I was born to go far.
My mother gave me her wisdom.
My father gave me his strength.
And that gorgeous girl,
whom I get to hold in my arms and enjoy life with,
Well, she’s the one who’s helping me understand,
just who I truly am.
I am great.
I am kind.
I no longer have to live in my past life.
I am Nate the Great,
and I am here beside you all,
smiling as we risk the fall.
