To You WSO, I Say Hello - I Gave Up On My Dream

I just didn't have the courage to do it?

Chase my dream I've had since I was a kid?

Why would I do that, it'll probably never make me any money

I found this website and became put on the path, the unique path, my own path forward

I had to grow up long ago, the world is cruel, and we can't all be idealistic

Maybe in another life I didn't give up on this dream

but not this one

I can't stop, I need to make VP and then do my MBA and then this and then that

then I'll be content, man I can't wait

Once I achieve those things... only then will I
