New Life


Life will be new each day

Today is the day

To follow your say

 

I have dreams

That people say I may 

Either accomplish or not make 

The voices in my head say no, but I say yes 

To follow my dreams is the mistake that I won't make 

 

I can easily listen to these voices in my head and be a nobody

Or I can listen to whar I say and become a person of great name 

 

It's now 10 years later and all the choices that I've made

have made me the person that I am today 

 

As the presidenet of the United States 

I could of easily listen to the racist voices inside my head 

but instead I have chosen to listen myself instead 

 

I am now a person of great name.
