Inspired to achieve
Beyond my own dreams
Perhaps disadvantaged
And without the true means
A burning desire
Fanned from a small ember
Conceived deep within
The struggle remembered
A generation compelled
In desperate need
The pressures of which
The need to succeed
I’ve ventured beyond
My own comfort zone
And cast away doubts
And the fears that I’ve known
Dedicated and focused
To ensure my success
The support of my family
And their sweet caress
Detours and diversions
Set forth in the road
I’ve managed the journey
And handled the load
Armed with the skills
I’ve honed to perfection
Proudly I walk
Today in reflection
Thank you, Dear Lord
For the opportunities you’ve given
I stand here today
Educated and driven
