They told me it was too hard.
They told me I wasn't that talented.
They told me I'd never manage.
They told me it won't get me anywhere.
They told me I didn't have a chance.
They told me I'd cry, I'd suffer for something that wasn't worth it.
They told me what I believed in was impossible.
They just gave me excuses. They just tried to stop me.
I told them that I liked challenges.
I told them I would succeed.
I told them I'd manage.
I told them I'd be happy.
I told them that I would try anyways.
I told them it was worth it.
I showed them it was possible.
I didn't listen to their excuses. I just proved them wrong.
