What Am I To Be?

What am I to be?
What's in my life for me?
What can I do that no man has done
What will my life bring me?

Where am I to go?
What feelings will I know?
Will I embrace the gifts I have?
What will I leave to show?

Will I be a gentleman?
Will I play my song?
Will I find a better place
And will you belong?
Will I gamble with my dreams?
Will I draw winning hands?
Can I keep the child in me
And still become a man?

What am I to be?
What's in my life for me?
What can I do that no man has done?
What will my life bring me?

What am I to be?
