Tattered Dreams


Sometimes its good To know what you want in life To have a direction And a purpose in living But then again It burns inside And brings tears to your eyes When that vision is threatened When everything in you Screams for your future But things keep brining you down Trying to tear you away Make you think you can’t make it Think you can’t ever reach what you Thought you could become As hard as you think it may be That’s when you have to shut up Wipe the tears from your eyes Stand up and Breathe Because you’re never going to accomplish anything Thinking you can’t. I’ve never met anyone else who wanted something more Who had such desire Where every action Every atom in their body Waned something like what you want. So you will make it. You will succeed And you will cry. You will fail You will be miserable. But you will make it Through all of your hard work, failures, moments of weakness, being lost, hopeless… It will all be worth it Trust me. Have Faith. Love the Lord for what is to come
