about

This is the ultimate uplifting anthem. I wrote this at a time when I was questioning everything I was doing with my life. The independent artist thing can be a very long and extremely challenging road. Self-doubt can creep in from almost any corner and without warning. I wrote this self-affirmation to remind myself (and hopefully you too!) that regardless of what anyone ever tells you, there truly is only one way to know for sure if you can accomplish the things you want, and that is to "Dare 2 Dream" and go for it!

lyrics

Everyone wants to be great
But not everyone knows how
Everyone’s got a treasure inside
Dying to find its way out
And we’re all scared of failure
But I’m more afraid of regret

(chorus)
Maybe it’s me caught in a freefall tonight
Maybe I’m finally ‘bout to hit the ground
Or maybe I can fly
This could be a bad disaster
Or everything I want and more
This could be what dreamers live for

One good thing about death
Is the chance it’s not today
So I’ll take every chance that I get
Living it only one way, and that’s
Headfirst, out loud
Falling at the speed of sound

(bridge)
So I’ll stand on the cliff, right at the edge
Thoughts are scaring me to death
What if I try, what if I fail
What if I never do prevail
But I’ll dare to run, dare to go
Dare to jump, and dare to know
And I’ll dare to dream
