Changing the World


If I nail this audition
If I get this part
My world
Will turn upside down.
I'll be what I've dreamt of being
A real actress
A real influence
An example 
To all young girls
Of what a woman could be.
Confident, caring
Strong, lovely
Demanding respect
With every step.
Never bending to the worlds cruel view
"Sexy is key"
That's what they say
But the world
Is so wrong
We're much more than that.
We're talented
We're intelligent
And now
Is my chance to prove it.
Here goes, no turning back.
We're here.
Let's change the world.
