Gifted
Arthur Quinones 1986
In giving my all,
I've realized more than ever before
how much I can do now
and how much further I can still go
I want to see better days,
but they're already here
I just have to keep putting one foot in front of the other,
and I will have brought my dreams of the future
that much closer to the present
That's what it means to have a gift,
and I intend to treasure it
