Codi, 14, performs her self written song "Dreamer" (see lyrics below) at the Newberry High School Pageant 3-5-11 Check out more of Codi's songs on youtube and www.codilester.com.

"I just need to say one little thing before I start the story. And I don't know of an ending because who quits dreaming, not me.
Cause I'm young and I'm wearing my dreams on my shoulders cause I wanna show them to the whole wide world.

And when people say I need some smaller dreams....well this is my life.

CHORUS:
What do you do...when your dreams are bigger than you, do you just stare and act like you don't care if they never come true.
What to you say... to people trying to hate, do you just smile and walk on by because you've got faith.
What do you do when your dreams are bigger than you?

And, I know, what are the odds of a small town, little girl from Newberry, South Carolina becoming a super star.
But I, I don't look at that, I look at what's for me
So many amazing people in my life that believe.
So I gotta make myself keep believing.

CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL
BRIDGE: and I might be 97 still chasing my dreams but if that what it means.
Then I'll go there because now I understand.

CHORUS:
What do you do... when your dreams are bigger than you? You gotta go and chase after them as fast as you can.
What do you say.... to people trying to hate. You just smile and walk on by because you've got faith.
And that's what you do, yeah that's what you do when your dreams are bigger than you.

When they're bigger than you." (X3)
