Dream it 
say it
do it.

I'm drowning and I can't swim
like a fish outta water I can't get air, I can't get to the brim
I can't breathe
I only bleed for my dream
I'm breaking apart at the seams
cause I can't reach it
I fight for it every day
every day's a losing battle
one step forward two steps back
I'm shackled in this shack
I can't face the truth if I'm a hack 
this will kill me if I don't get it
a slow torture of death
I have to keep fighting I'm not gonna quit
I'm gonna get out of this pit
this is what my soul is yearning for, it's calling out
I'm not giving you a sermon
but I am.
I have a vision planted in my brain
I'm not insane 
this is my quest.

dream it
say it
do it
is the anthem that I preach
this is the journey that I seek
it may look bleak but I don't care
I'm going after it anyway and I won't be scared.
This is my life 
I see it in front of me
no turning back
cut me some slack
I've got all the facts
I know what I'm doing
I'm not fooling
I'm not losing
my life's not gonna be in ruins
my dream I am pursuing
however long it takes
until the end.

I know it's hard
I know it's tough
but what's the alternative?

dream it
say it
do it. 

This poem was written about someone who really wants to go after their dream and attain it but they are struggling with it.  They finally let go and decide enough is enough and go after it with all their heart and soul because that's what their passion is.
