What happens to a dream deferred?
You wait too long
You drown in "what if's"
"Did I do this right"
How can you think that
When half of the things you do
You do from momentum
When it feels right
Or simply because you think to yourself
Am I doing the right thing
What if all this time I've been focusing on the future
What if I focus on the now
What will change if I focus on myself
What if I let everything and everyone
Tell me what I'm supposed to do
When they try to lead my path
What if I were to do things on my own
If I could just follow my heart into the unknown
Would that really be so bad
Doing things on my own
Having my own dreams
For once in my life,
I want to do things right
Lead my own life
What if I was done
Following other people
It's time for me to listen to my heart
And do what I want to do
I can be free if I wanted to
Now I feel like a flying bird
feeling the wind shatter in my face
I can follow my dreams
Be who I want to be
And most importantly
Be a leader instead of
following other people
What if I was free
