Reach higher than has ever been
Tear the boundaries from your soul.

If greatness is your goal in the end
Start now and don’t be told.

The strongest power comes from within
The mind, the heart, the grit.

Let the flames in your inside burst and begin
And let your candle be lit.

Don’t listen to the ones who say
“You’re not good enough. You’re not smart.”

Instead make a path in your own way
And choose the better part.

Once you choose to be yourself
You can never be stopped.

Pull those dreams from off the shelf
And never let them be dropped.

All you’ve imagined is within reach
All things they can be done.

Live your life beyond belief
And you’ve already won.


The author's comments:

Most of the human popultion never obtains their full potential. I believe there is greatness in everyone and that some are just too afraid to let themselves shine.
