You must be the change you wish to see in the world- Gahndi


I gotta believe that there is more to this life than just surviving

That there will be better than all down hills

That I can be more than I am deemed to be

I gotta believe that there is more to this life than this aching pain

That this isn’t all there is

That I am more than a monkey in an organ grinders act

I gotta believe that all that time I spent getting up on my feet wasn’t for nothing

That there is a reason for all these faltering moments

That there has to be more..


We have to believe that there is more

That we aren't what society sees us to be

That we can take control of our own destiny

We have to believe that in all the pain there is happiness

That for every tear that falls comes two more smiles

That in this cruel world filled with hate  

We can be happy
