I can jump through hoops
crash through windows
break down doors
Yet, there’s no shortcut to a dream
Nothing has ever come easy
for poverty left many doors unopened
and many windows with a jagged ledge
But nothing has been insurmountable
Genies in a bottle don’t exist
But hard work, perseverance and love
bring forth one’s fortune
And then one must walk that path up high
There’s no shortcut to a dream
But my arms will pull me up
My legs will carry me forward
and my belief in me will keep me going for the long haul
