Dreams Seriously Challenged by Reality
Free me from the traps of conformity
Drive all these popular myths away
Cast off the lines of my abandonment
Raise up my anchor that doubt betray
Lift my soul to its rightful refinement
Freedom lets me walk a limb I daresay
If I'm afraid to find my contentment
In life an artist's canvas to portray
So imagination would become resentment
Dreams seriously challenged by reality
Drive all these popular myths away
Cast off the lines of my abandonment
Raise up my anchor that doubt betray
Lift my soul to its rightful refinement
Freedom lets me walk a limb I daresay
If I'm afraid to find my contentment
In life an artist's canvas to portray
So imagination would become resentment
Dreams seriously challenged by reality
