The Brain Surgeon
My answer never changes, I shall not- and will not- fail
Everytime im asked, "Just what would you like to do?"
It is what i must do, "To be a Brain surgeon is my muse!"
They look at me with so much disbelief!
The look on their face gives me much grief,
i know they are wrong, about me to succeed,
i'm not that smart, not that certain breed
I assure them I have what it takes,
i have determination, i know the stakes!
Sure my obstacles are great in number,
my mind will be pushed, i must miss my normal slumber,
I will have next to no money, no time to hang out
even without them, I am filled with extreme doubt.
I ask myself constantly, can I really do this?
Or is my drive not enough, will I even be missed?
Maybe their right, I am just a normal simplistic
Does this mean I should just quit, be another statistic?
People have no faith in me, should I just listen?
To others this is what it seems, but i tend to look at it in reverse
(read backwards)
