Calling Dreams + 

The right to make my dreams come true + 

I ask, nay, I demand of life, + 

Nor shall fate’s deadly contraband + 

Impede my steps, nor countermand. + 

Too long my heart against the ground + 

Has beat the dusty years around, + 

And now, at length, I rise, I wake! + 

And stride into the morning-break! + 
