Real Aspirations

I will never be all that I could be,
For the hopes I have do far exceed my means
But nothing's stopping me from dreaming these dreams,
No matter how hard or far-fetched they seem to be

And I wonder how far?
Yet I wonder...

How far will I fall from the target?
How far from the stars will I falter?
How lost will I be when I get where I'm going?
Who knows?

I will never see all there is to see,
For the blind man knows a light that's beyond me
Oh, That's not to say he couldn't stand to gain from a man of my ways

We are one, but not the same,
The beauty is difference
All the answers are the same,
It's the questions we ask that make the game

How far will I fall from the target?
How far from the stars will I falter?
How lost will I be when I get where I'm going?
Who knows?

If all the reasons that hold you in place, hold you down
Is it the fear of failure or the fear to succeed?
When all the signs lead to nowhere,
Where do you look for a lead?
Look no further than a mirror,
Find yourself,
Find another way to see

How far will I fall from the target?
How far from the stars will I falter?
How lost will I be when I get where I'm going?
Who knows?
