Beyond the Gold

Inspired by the people who said no.

Didn’t quite make the cut and now the funds are getting low

Where to chase my dream, where do I go

Might get kicked out of college or worst, take a step out

These breaks are not the ones that keep with the beat

Only time for greed to slip its grip around my throat

Choke all my passions out my soul

The ones who said I couldn’t, the ones I let down

They don’t even matter when I'm on this road

Pursuit of happiness is beyond the gold

It's a shame that finances and other people's negativity can be such obstacles to overcome, but they will only make success all the sweeter when you and you alone achieve it. Determination is what keeps you going and determination is what will get you there in the end. Just because others didn't meet their goals is no excuse to dismiss others. You go and get it girl :)
