• Watch me fly, watch me soar,
    see my success grow more and more.
    You always dreamed, but never believed,
    that I'd be making history.

    You hoped and prayed, thinking maybe someday
    I'd reach the expectations you made.
     
    My imagination ran faster than me,
    and hope encouraged that I believe.
    Your disappointment and critique
    almost made me accept defeat.

    (My despair was a lake,
    and I was drowning.)


    Perseverance kept me awake;
    and I refrained from frowning.
    Here I am, so look at me now.

    (Has what I've done made you proud?)

    Like an eagle, I am flying high,
    exceeding limits every time.
    You never believed I'd make it through,


    now look at me, and look at you.
