To achieve, to conquer and to rise,
I want to say what I think out loud
Clamour it on the rooftops till the world hears my cries
I want to banish my doubts and be proud
Walk down the path of confidence even when my soul dies
I want to reach for the crown and grab it in my hand
See the world as it really is and finally understand

To achieve, to conquer and to rise,
I want to finish one of my tales
Prove that I'm not always snide
I want to tear Conflict with my nails
Stop destroying me from inside!
I want to stand despite the billowing wind
Show that I'm more than just blind

To achieve, to conquer and to rise
I want you to look my way,
And realise, I'm so much more
I want to hear insults and not sway,
Because I am so much more
I want to find that I'm not that much of a bore,
Because I am so much more

I may not know how to speak well
But through ink and pen shall I
Achieve, conquer and rise.
