Why be someone else when you can be yourself
Why live in the dark when you have the power to start a spark
Why tell lies when you can be wise
Why push others when they are truly our sisters and brothers
Why hate if we all have the same fate
Why sow when we have the power too let go
Why be ordinary when we have the choice to be extraordinary
Then why do I choose to do wrong
It’s because we have developed a need of knowing where we belong
Wanting to be someone else
When in reality your better off being yourself

To be an inspiration
You first have to have dedication
And innovation
For a result of transformation
You can’t just live up to everyone’s expectation
Instead you have to let go of any situation
And let go of any limitation
That’s holding you back from being that motivation
So that people can see your determination
So that people can witness your dedication
So that you can build up your reputation
To inspire this new generation
So that they can have a positive vibration
So that they may also one day be that inspiration

If it was only a dream
Than how does it seem
That there’s more meaning behind our sleep
That we have to choose if we’re going to take that leap
Or if we’re going to be a sheep
Lost without a sheppard
And as sick as a leper
Until we finally start to believe
In the person who use to be niave
Who’s now changed by a simple dream
Accomplished only by a team
Because it’s a dream come true
That the only person who can make dreams possible is you

How do we let go of something that we have longed for?
When our heart pushes us towards something that makes us want more
That sometimes the things we want aren’t the things we need
That our life starts out as a simple seed
That eventually sprouts into a complex tree
So that the whole world may see
Of what we always wanted to be
But the only way to grow
Is by learning how to let go
On the things we don’t need
That strangles our plant like a weed
That it hurts our plants growth
From the responsibility of our oath
An oath to be the best we can possibly be
So that we can be free
From the things that hold us back
So that we can keep ourselves on track

How long has it been since I’ve had a taste of fresh air?
How long will it take for someone to notice and care?
How long will these chains hold me down?
How long will it take to hear a voice or just a simple sound?
Because all I want is a sign that will tell me that everything will be ok
That there will be a solution to the debt I have to pay
Because when I am lost I am found
That there is a reason why this earth is round
Just like there’s a reason of why God let’s me run wild and be free
So that I may listen to what God wants me to be
So that I may choose my own paths and make my own mistakes
That I should not worry how long freedom takes
Because I am free by the grace of God
That Jesus was the true son of God and not a fraud
So that he may die for my sins present, future and past
So that I may be free at last

Leaving the people you love
Because you know in your heart there is something out there above
That’s pushing you towards your future goals
So that you may overcome any bumps and holes
That have been set in place to challenge you towards your road to success
That you may progress
And invest in something worth striving for
That you will never forget those who were part of your life before
Because they are the ones who helped mold you to the person you are today
That life shouldn’t be looked as as if it was black and gray
But instead you should look at life through the spectrum of colors
Where your light shines to others
That your friendships will never die
That this doesn’t mean that this will be your last goodbye
Because in time people will see you for who really are
A shining star

How can you understand what I’m feeling?
Words can’t explain what I’m dealing
With on a regular bases
That the only way we could understand each other would be by switching places
To put ourselves in someone else’s shoes
So that we may understand the reasons behind what you choose
Because we would have to walk a thousand miles in someone else’s shoes to know that their struggles are real
So that we may understand how they feel
So that we may see what they see
So that we may see what they want to be
So that we may see their point of view
So that we may see what is true
So that we may see the paths of what we choose
When we put ourselves in each others shoes

If you never let your words speak the truth
Than you’ll never know what impact you could have on the youth
If you never speak with an open heart
Than you’ll never know what kind of friendships you could start
If you never appreciate who you are
Than you’ll never expect to travel far
If you never let yourself become an honest man
Than you’ll never fully understand the purpose of God’s future plan
Because you’ll never fully understand the value of your life
Until you have lived an honest life

When we mess up we run away from the guilt we have to face
From all the broken hearts that have taken place
And when we feel like there is no hope we are given grace
Grace from all the sins we have made
From all the scars that we have paid
Because grace is not earned like respect but given
Given to anyone who is living
Because if God can send his only son to die for our sins so that we may have an eternal place
In heaven; than giving someone else a second chance shouldn’t be so hard but it will show the true meaning of grace

How do we change others for the greater good?
How do we make a difference towards a life that’s misunderstood?
How do we help create a purpose towards someone who’s lost their will?
That when we help others shape their life; we get that sense of thrill
A satisfaction that can only be gained by trust
By gaining trust it will help us define what is just
So that we may understand from what is right from what is wrong
So that we may all get along
So that these words wouldn’t just be words but also a song
Because when we make a difference in the lives of others
We become more than just sisters and brothers
