All of my life,
I've never done anything right.
I've pointed the blade,
But never moved the knife.

I've promised to fulfill my dreams
But taken not one chance,
That hasn't left me in screams.
I've begged with all my heart,
For some opportunity to come
But I still haven't began to start.

Now is my chance
To make a metal rod
My lance
To follow the rainbow
without a second glance
Break free of the past
Because at last
I'm not letting this opportunity pass
