the one-man dream catcher

right now im might just be the most determined person
i have ever been
and all it took was my parents not believing in me
funny, isn't it?

when you were in kindergarten didn't your parents say,
"reach for the stars!" and
"you can do it!"
yeah well, that was when we all wanted to be firefighters and policeman
when we all wanted to be doctors and presidents

try telling your parents you might want to become and actress
might
even the smallest possibility that you won't be normal
and you learn that everything they told you in kindergarten was
straight-up, no lie
b u l l s h i t

from you too
and that just plain out hurts
we were always supposed to be on the same side
fighting for freedom of individuality and independence together
but is i grow older i again realize,
b u l l s h i t

it hurts, but again makes me more determined
maybe God is putting this hurdle in my life
so that i can fight harder
so that i can try harder
so that i can experience happiness on my own

and you only need one person to chase a dream
so bring it on
