I’m reaching for the stars…

I’m reaching for the stars,
Striving hard to reach my fullest potential.
All the rigors are really, truly inconsequential.
I’m achieving, even if I gotta break through bars.

Stand back…man on a mission,
Please step aside, I’m coming through.
I’m on the right track got my goals in view.
I refuse to spend my life away, just a’wishin’,
Making the most of opportunity is my ambition.

I’m reaching…I’m reaching...I’m reaching for the stars,
Striving hard to reach my fullest potential.
All the rigors are really, truly inconsequential.
I’m achieving, even if I gotta break through bars.

Don’t hate me, frustrate me, underestimate me…
I ain’t tryin’ to beat you, just tryin’ to better me.
I’m honing my skills, aiming for proficiency.
I just wanna go farther than where I’m at, you see.
My desire is to be my best and bring my God the glory.

I’m reaching…I’m reaching...I’m reaching for the stars,
Striving hard to reach my fullest potential.
All the rigors are really, truly inconsequential.
I’m achieving, even if I gotta break through bars.

Brothers and sisters let us reach together.
If we work as one, we can achieve whatever.
We can make a difference if we just pull together.
Unified, we can be strong enough to endure stormy weather.
With God’s help we can bring change that can last forever.

I’m reaching…I’m reaching...I’m reaching for the stars,
Striving hard to reach my fullest potential.
All the rigors are really, truly inconsequential.
I’m achieving, even if I gotta break through bars.
I’m reaching…I’m reaching...I’m reaching for the stars…

You reaching?

Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might... Eccl 9:10

Great poem - written from the heart with a challenging message. Love the line 'My desire is to be my best and bring my God the glory'. Your closing Bible text is the wonderful simmit of all the truth you express very well. Thankyou.
