I Will Succeed Poem by David Beckham

Today
I will go out there
And walk amongst men
Because today, I fear not that I will fail
Rather than hide in the shadows of my past
I will face the future, with the bravery of a lion
I have seen many before me crumble like the Berlin Wall
I have seen many before me false start like at a race
But this is not fight for the feint of heart
Neither is it a fight for supremacy
This is my call to liberation, to redemption, a personal wake up call!

Far in the distant I see with the eyes of a fortuneteller
I have dreams of paradise
Dreams of bliss
I have a future
I see it not through a telescope
But through faith in my heart and believe to conquer

I will, I will, I will succeed. The will is in my heart.

The world is filled with over achievers
I ought to be there with them
The pessimist, wants to be my friend
But I choose to flirt with the rich and famous
If I shelter my thoughts
It would be like the plant hiding from the sun
I will not blossom; I will grow up all crooked!
If I get behind the line, or if I hide away from the rays
Perhaps I might never see the sun!
Never see the future!
The blueprint is in my heart.
Get up; Stand up, like Marley
I say to failure, 'You can’t be holding on to my hands no more, let go! '

I will, I will, I will succeed. The will is in my heart.
