JOURNEY TO THE DREAM

I was running and sweating

The path was thorny

I was burning and bleeding

The path became shiny

The more I was going towards it

The more it was running away
I kept moving without a say

People called me insane

Some called me a looser

Some laughed like a snoozer

Some tried to give me hope

Some forced me to elope

But I kept moving

I kept running and sweating

I kept bleeding and burning

Why have I dreamt so?

Life is always GO NO GO

I chose to GO

People pulled me back

Time told me to go and pack

Circumstances broke me down

I cried, I screamed, I frown

But I kept running and sweating

I kept bleeding and burning

They laughed first and they copied

They had to pay the heed

The fire inside me is growing each day

Say whatever you wanna say

I’ll reach the target I have set

Let me burn, bleed and become wet

The path is chosen by me

I am not your responsibility

I’ll keep running and sweating

I’ll keep bleeding and burning
