Growing Dawn
Seed has been planted
Mantras have been chanted
Growth will follow
To fill what's hollow
Time is of essence
Got to keep patience
Greatness demands blood and sweat
Don't give up on it just yet
When you are bleeding and scarred
Don't have strength to go another yard
Remember you want to become a star
But don't forget who you really are
Step by step slowly, you'll cover a mile
Tears shed now will create a long lasting smile
When you face a defeat and destination is far
Remember life is not a battle, rather it is a war
The only right way is to keep going on
Even when it is dark, don't wait for dawn
‘coz sometimes dawn doesn't come on its own
It has to be planted, it has to be grown
