The Reality we don't see
Its different from what I thought
The fairy tales I had built up over the years
I thought if I dreamed high I would accomplish all that I want
But reality hit like a heavy sigh
My heart is crushed and my spirit dry
Everyday is a reminder to bury my dreams

I thought the world would be full of grace
Where love and kindness filled every place
But instead, I found a harsh face
And my innocence replaced

With every step, my dreams did fade
And disappointment is the shade
That follows me, wherever I'd roam
A constant reminder, i wasn't home

I want to hold on to my dreams
But dreams are for the rich
One thing I cannot afford
And it's okay
It's all part of life
