Carpe Diem

I’ve thrown away all of my outside distractions. 
I’m diving headfirst to chase a dream that I won’t let go. 
It’s worthless - a waste of time. This goal is out of reach. You better fall back in line. 
This is what I need. You are what I need.  
I need motivation to prove you wrong, and I will prove you wrong. 
What makes you think that you are different?  
How can you chase these dreams? They’ve [bad word] a chore. 
I know I’m close. I’m almost there.  
Just a little more, and I will prevail through what you call "ignorance". I will prevail. 
Now I’ve chased this dream to do what I love, and I wouldn’t trade it for a thing.  
Now I’ve chased this dream and I made it out alive. I wouldn’t trade it for a thing.  
I threw away what naysayers say, and started on a race that I had to win for myself. 
And you proved me wrong, you proved me wrong. 
All I’ve learned is teaching me more. All I know is driving me on.
