Imagine, the possibilities! 
Going where nobody’s gone before

Legends looking from above, 
The world taking note.

When will I be able to say that I made…

Can I already say it?

Cause I’m happy with who I am, 

I’m happy with the way I am

They say it's a Woman's day.
Greetings were exchanged.
Business houses were extra benevolent
