When all goes wrong
The stars stare down
And smile at me
They remind to reach
And to not fall
But to keep climbing
Cause one look
At hope in the face
Makes me realize
I can do it all
Anything and everything
To keep my head up
And middle finger higher
To let nobody stand
In the way of my dreams
I’m Collin B.
And I know damn well
That I’ll make it
Failure isn't an option
So when all goes wrong
I look to the stars
As the star back
And smile down on me
