When a Dream Leads to Greed

A dream glows in the mind,

Starting at the time of innocence.

The ambition is envisioned,

Picturing that day on center stage.

Practicing for the chance to glory,

Hoping to earn those screaming fans.

Talent buys the big contract,

Signing the paper that leads to cash.

Stardom crushes a childhood fantasy,

Courtesy to all the piles of money.
