Dare to Dream

Why try to achieve
what others have already dreamed
Why try to accomplish
those things of which there is no need
Why put into action
things that have already been done or said
Fueling off of others' ambition, skimming their glory, running scared
Dare to dream
a life that brings forth change
Hope for our future,
make your own name
Stop putting off for tomorrow
things that can be done today
Start making plans and get busy with life,
there is no time to waste
Why stay in one place
putting your life on a stand still
Stop joking around and playing
as if you have time to kill
Why not put into action
all of those things you’ve dared to dream
Why not be like Dr. King
and change the scheme of things
Why not take all of those thoughts
that you have gathered up in your mind
Why not be courageous
and win this race against time
Why not put your foot down
And stand your ground
Saying to yourself,
"I am like Dr. King.
I, too, can change the scheme of things
And yes,
I, too, will dare to dream
