Watch Me

The sharp words leave your lips   

With destructive intentions

The piercing syllables draw blood

From my fragile confidence

 

 

You tell me I\'m incapable

You tell me that my  

Blood

Sweat

 And tears

Are meaningless

 

You grip my dreams around the neck 

Until they turn black and blue

 

You say that i have failed

 

 

But the only thing i have failed to do

Is to believe you

 

 

Who are you to say what I am capable of 

Why should you get the final say in what i can do

 

 

I control my destiny 

And I decide where I\'m going

 

You say, \"You can\'t.\"

I say, \"Watch me.\"
