a girl with a formula 1 dream
by Amelia Lock
Lyrics
Yeah…
They said a girl like her could never make it.
Too young, too broke, too far from the grid.
But they don't know what's burning inside her.
One dream. One shot. One life.
Formula One… she's coming.
Eighteen years old with a fire in her chest,
Got a dream so big, won't settle for less.
Got grease on her hands, got scars on her pride,
With a vision of the grid and the world watching live.
They say, “Be realistic, that dream's too high,”
But she looks at the stars, says, “Just watch me fly.”
No rich-man backing, no silver spoon,
Just a heart full of fire and a date with the moon.
She ain't here for the fame, ain't here for the lights,
She's ready to fight through a million long nights.
Every lap, every loss, every tear that she cries,
Turns the girl with a dream to a woman who flies.
Got a helmet, got a heartbeat, foot to the floor,
Every time they shut a door, she comes back for more.
They can laugh, they can doubt, they can talk all day,
But she's building her future while they stand in her way.
She's got a Formula One dream, hear the engine scream,
Black suit, white lines, chasing everything she's seen.
From the back of the pack to the top of the scene,
She's gonna make 'em remember the girl with the dream.
Full throttle, no fear, let the whole world know,
She's got fire in her soul and a long way to go.
They can tell her she's crazy, they can say what they mean,
But one day she'll be standing on that Formula One scene!
No shortcuts, no luck, just work and grind,
Got a thousand different battles running laps in her mind.
Every sponsor she chases, every door slammed shut,
Every “no” that she hears just fuels her guts.
She studies every corner, every braking point,
Every second on the clock got a purpose and a point.
From the karting track dreaming of a championship crown,
She'll climb every ladder, she won't stay down.
They see a girl in a cockpit, she sees a whole life,
Every sacrifice made, every struggle, every fight.
While they're sleeping, she's planning, while they're doubting, she's training,
Through the rain and the pressure, her ambition ain't fading.
She knows it's expensive, knows the road's insane,
Knows the climb to the top comes with heartbreak and pain.
But she's done being scared of the odds she faces,
She's gonna earn her place on the world's fastest stages.
She's got a Formula One dream, hear the engine scream,
Black suit, white lines, chasing everything she's seen.
From the back of the pack to the top of the scene,
She's gonna make 'em remember the girl with the dream.
Full throttle, no fear, let the whole world know,
She's got fire in her soul and a long way to go.
They can tell her she's crazy, they can say what they mean,
But one day she'll be standing on that Formula One scene!
Mum sees the worry when she looks in her eyes,
Dad sees the girl who keeps reaching for the sky.
And she knows that the road won't be easy to take,
But she'd rather chase her dream than live with the ache.
Of wondering “what if?” when she's older one day,
Thinking 'bout the chance that she threw away.
So she'll fight for the funding, put her name on the line,
Turn a little bit of hope into a moment in time.
She ain't asking for a seat, she wants to earn that place,
Wants to prove that determination can change the race.
Not because she's a girl, not to prove them all wrong,
But because she's loved these machines her whole life long.
And when the lights go out and the engines ignite,
She'll remember every person who believed in her fight.
Every sleepless night, every setback she's seen,
Will be part of the story of a Formula One dream.
Five red lights…
Heart beats fast…
She's not built to quit.
She's built to last.
One girl. One chance. One shot at the crown.
She might start at the bottom…
But she's not staying down.
Tell the paddock, tell the grid, tell the whole damn world,
There's a new name coming, she's a determined girl.
No guarantee of glory, no promise of gold,
Just a dream in her heart and a spirit that's bold.
Every race, every test, every mile that she drives,
Every time she gets knocked down, she comes back alive.
She's not waiting for permission, she's creating her way,
Putting in the work, getting closer each day.
From the local little circuits to the lights of Monaco,
She's got places to be and a long way to go.
Maybe years of sacrifice before she reaches that scene,
But she'll never let them bury her Formula One dream.
And if the whole world doubts her, let 'em talk, let 'em stare,
She's got fuel in her lungs and ambition to spare.
She's a girl with a dream and a heart made of steel,
And she's chasing something bigger than they ever thought real!
They told her it was impossible.
She heard a challenge.
They told her to give up.
She hit the throttle.
She doesn't need the world to believe in her today.
She just needs to keep going.
One day…
Those five red lights might be hers.
Girl with a dream. Formula One ambition. Number one destination.
