Nothing Will Stop Me
College is right around the corner
IB, AP, everything's all behind me now
Tuition and money got real, but how?
Childhood gone, adulthood's an order
Gonna be living on my own
Real world's got me under pressure
But before I can discover the true treasure
I've gotta feel the hurt of taking out a loan
The birds I tried to catch in the past
I hope to avoid now, when driving a car
And although I've gone so far
I now know that this hurdle isn't the last
I used to think, "Look at what I've accomplished!"
Looking at the past as if I've done everything
But now when I look at anything
I think, "What will it be like when I overcome this?"
The curiosity of my childhood past
Has turned into reality, accomplishment, failure
Everything I've done I look back at as a savior
I'm guided for the future, from butterflies to rats
The doors shut are as good as those opened
In the past, I'd cry and not let my mistakes go
That shut a lot of doors, but opened a huge load
Mistakes are what I learn from, big and small, received and sent
I used to think the world is in my hands
I used to think I knew everything
I know now, my life is what makes me sing
Not whether or not I have complete control of my land
I can't change others, only myself
I won't turn the world around, but I will try
I won't stop no matter what, not even pause to sigh
Because there is never anything that's not left
