Today a dream
I dreamed came true
A promise I made
To myself that I’d do
A lifetime ago
I was only eighteen
But I knew back then
One day it would be real
The road’s been long
And at times beyond tough
But I held on to that vision
And I never gave up
I dealt with the doubters
The haters and thieves
Those out to get me
Through jealousy and greed
I lost my way
But now I’ve made it back
So here I stand
And that is that
Thanks be to God
And the universe
For giving me the strength
To finally lift the curse.
