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
Written when I was 15 and inspired by the poem Invictus
