Why be a dreamer?
When your dreams won't come true.
Why wish for the open plains?
If you're trapped inside the zoo.
Why be a writer?
If you're always getting stuck.
Why take that chance?
Why push your luck?
Why be an artist?
When you cannot afford to eat.
Why be an athlete?
When you keep taking defeat.
Why don't you stop?
Why do you continue?
How do you even do it?
With everything you've been through.
Why do you chase dreams?
I doubt you'll make it far.
Why do you believe?
When you can never be a star.
Wow, that's quite a list.
I pray you still believe.
Never quit, instead persist.
Until you're living in your dream.
They ask a lot of questions.
And don't focus on themselves.
It fill's them up with hatred.
When they see you be yourself.
Keep your head held high.
We're all in this together.
Dreamers persevere.
We can survive in any weather.
So if they ask why I'm a dreamer.
Even if dreams don't come true.
It's simple, I'm a dreamer.
Because that's what I love to do.

A Letter to the Firestarter
Dear Firestarter, We can all see you, we've been watching you since you began. In case you didn't know we were here before you and we will be here after. We witnessed your rise, your setbacks, your guilt and your lies. We witnessed you start the fire.
