This is the first song that Makayla wrote at 9 years old. She wrote the lyrics as well as all her own melody. (This song is copyright 2010 Makayla). Makayla is just beginning song writing and has quite a few bits and pieces but this is the first completed song. She wrote it from her heart and it sums up exactly how she feels.
Lyrics:
Someday my dreams will come true,
I'll love to do what I do
You'll see my name in the lights
You'll hear me sing up on the stage
I know I won't be afraid
My future is so bright.
I never want to be someone else,
I'll keep being myself.
I'll be proud and stand my ground
Everyone is special in their own way,
We've all got lots to say
It's what makes the world go round
CHORUS
I'm just a girl with big big dreams,
As out of reach as they seem
I will always believe
Good things will come just wait and see
I'm as special as can be.
So I'll just keep being me
VERSE 2
My friends and family mean so much
They surround me with love
They make everything so fun.
I'll make them proud, I'll make them smile,
Although it may take awhile
I know I'll get it done.
My future's brighter than you know
I've got so much to show
And I've got time on my side
I love to sing, I love to play,
And if it don't go my way
I'll be proud to say I tried
CHORUS
I'm just a girl with big big dreams,
As out of reach as they seem
I will always believe
Good things will come just wait and see
I'm as special as can be.
So I'll just keep being me
REFRAIN
People will tell me
To look different, sing louder
They'll break me,
And knock me to my knees,
But my momma taught me
To stand taller, be prouder
It's a gift,
And that's all that I need.
CHORUS
I'm just a girl with big big dreams,
As out of reach as they seem
I will always believe
Good things will come just wait and see
I'm as special as can be.
So I'll just keep being me....
Cause it's who I love to be!
