Footsteps echo on the path I chose
Eyes forward where the skyline glows
Dust and sweat cling like faded prose
I've got miles to go but I won't slow
Look at the stars they shine for me
Tracing a future I can barely see
I'll keep climbing till I'm wild and free
This is my moment it's meant to be
They said the ladder's steep and cold
But my heartbeat's loud and my grip won't fold
Every climb makes me bold with gold
I'll write my story before I'm old
Silent tears in a crowded room
Like flowers fighting the night to bloom
Hope hangs soft in the air like a tune
I'm stepping forward not too soon
Bittersweet taste of the dusk tonight
Faces fade but the dreams ignite
What's ahead feels a little too bright
But I can't stop chasing the flight
Look at the stars they shine for me
Tracing a future I can barely see
I'll keep climbing till I'm wild and free
This is my moment it's meant to be
