I'll Be the Best I can Be
I want to make a giant splash,
not just a couple ripples.
I'll leave people soaked and stunned
at what I have done, for the better of
our crazy world.
I want to create an ocean,
not a small puddle.
People will swim in my legacy,
and remember how I tried to be my best.
I will not be forgotten with time.
I want to be Niagra Falls,
not just a couple of raindrops.
People will stand in my glory,
and reach out a hand
just to feel all the good I try to do.
I want to be someone's sun,
not just another star.
I want to impact millions of lives
in the most positive way I can,
but wehen it comes to the people
that are nearest to my heart,
I want to shine brighter than anything
else in their world.
Even after I've passed away,
they'll still see and need me
for them to survive each day.
