Taking My Passion Away.

When I'm dancing, It releases pain,
Takes me to a world I've never known.
Just like therapy, It spills my words,
Letting me know that I'm not alone.

A passion inside, You wanna take,
My inner drive that helps me move on.
When times are rough and I cannot smile,
You laugh, Hoping my passion is gone.

Never once have you seen me on stage,
Haven't seen all the things I can do.
From breakdancing to ballet and jazz,
I've beaten the best, I'm good, It's true.

Yet you still don't care and never will,
It's my dream that you're taking away.
The only thing that makes me happy,
Is taken from me to make your day.

Then you complain I'm doing nothing,
Wasting my life for a simple dream.
But with or without you here with me,
I'm gonna work hard to get the cream.

I'm not going to hold anything back,
I will dance with my heart, Nothing else.
Let go, And let my emotions free,
Not caring 'bout no one but myself.

Take it to the max, I won't give up,
I'll dance out my heart, For you to see.
Dancing is my life, Life is dancing,
I just wish for once you would watch me.
