BELIEVE IN YOU
I dare you to dream like you’ve never dreamed before.
I dare you to dance like your feet have just met the floor.
I dare you to believe that you’re greater than you’ve ever thought.
I dare to you see the people in your life,
And see the ones who you really work to end your strife.
It’s funny that we tend to be caught in a maze
And all we do is stand around in a gaze.
And we tend to look into the eyes of the people, who have a very critical disguise,
And we seek their support when they can’t even give it to the wise.
And because we can’t get them to see us as we are
We create expectations for ourselves to gain their approval, which will never be felt.
For what we expect them to see in us
Will never be seen,
So WHY are we waiting for them to complete our dreams?
Are we willing to trust that limitations exist,
And that it’s impossible to live a life full of bliss?
Why are we looking for the approval from the people who don’t really know how to care?
For in fact they don’t even see us there.
We need to look INSIDE for this is where ALL OUR MAGIC lies.
You’ve heard it before, and I’m sure you’ll hear it again
But the only truth is the truth that YOU hold WITHIN.
And when you BeLiEve that you need someone’s approval
You’ll fight for it, thinking once you get it, it’ll end your strife.
The truth is, “Why does THEIR approval give you LIFE?”
Your GreaTness has it’s OWN InTerNaL, Eternal link,
And you don’t need another to have it UNCOVERED.
You are YOUR own MaStEr,
Your own author,
Your own painter,
Your own storyteller,
And while it’s admirable to acknowledge the greatness in another
Know too, that YOUR GREATNESS should be UNCOVERED.
There is NO exclusivity in this world when you live a LiFe that is REAL.
There is NO exclusivity to the SOURCE.
There is NO exclusivity to the magic that can be on YOUR course.
If you can celebrate a brother’s victory,
Then you’ll learn to be proud of your own.
If you can rejoice in a sister’s accomplishment,
Then you’ll be excited to share those of your own.
For when you hand it to another
You’re actually handing it back to yourself.
And in a universe full of ABUNDANCE
Our biggest weakness is the thoughts we hold inside,
That say there’s not enough for everyone to fly.
It’s our beliefs that hold us in,
And it’s love that helps us step out of them.
If you run your life from the sidelines then fear will have created its foothold.
But if you run against the critic
And take on the chants in the crowd
You’ve got more HEART than those who never leave the safe bounds.
For even when you fall, you’ll get right back up
For you’ve chosen to wear the cape of love
And fear you’ll never serve
Because you’re not playing the game of life to not lose
Why would you focus on it from that perspective?
You’re playing it to WIN.
You’re not on the defense,
You’re on the offense,
And if you’re going to play it to win
You’ve got to play it for YOUR LOVE of the game.
When you critique another
The illusion is that you’re actually critiquing yourself.
For what you don’t like in others
For what you judge carelessly
For what you say when you don’t know
Sets your boundaries and limitations by what you’ve sown.
The more you critique the more you’ll fear
The more you admire, appreciation and high five up
The more you’ll find yourself ready to blow through this bluff of FEAR.
The illusion is in fact that we are the ONLY ones, who have the power to make it REAL,
And we are the only ones that through our POWER to LOVE can make it DISAPPEAR.
You can’t change your world if you can’t change your SIGHT.
If you can SEE through LoVing eyes than we might be able to pull back the shades.
Why can’t we go after it all?
Who told you that it’s impossible?
Are you writing your dream, or did you invite them to do it for you?
And if you did, I hope that they’re good company
Because you’ll begin to see that either they take away or add to it
And if you let them stay and pull your dreams apart
You may want to reconsider the company you’re amongst.
For I believe that what you believe will be TRUE.
And I can’t change your mindset nor would I ever try to toil with the skeptic eyes.
But if you BeLieve that you’re here for something GREATER,
That you’ve got GREATNESS INSIDE
And you’re ready to take on any tide
You’re ready to see what you can make come ALIVE
Then don’t let that seed go by the wayside.
Because I know that the truth of your greatness is so
And I SEE it, and I FEEL it, and I HOPE you do, too,
But I can’t make you believe, if you don’t BELIEVE in YOU.

... I BeLieVe ...
I Believe we create our own MaGiC in LiFe.
I Believe we create ourselves by our BEliEfs.
I Believe we create our LiVes by what we VaLuE.
I Believe we come to VaLuE what we think will give us LoVe yet I believe LoVe is an internal well of ABunDance that ComEs from within.
I BeLieve we can only give LoVe to another after we already have LoVe for ourselves.
I Believe change is AweSome and if we FlOw with it, it will AlLow the unimaginable 2 flow in2 our LiVes.
I Believe that we are GreAt SouLs, and we should honor our essence.
I Believe what we SEEK 2 Give in LiFe will be GIVEN 2 us.
I Believe we should embrace our ImaGinAtIoNs more than we EmBraCe the FacTs.
I BeliEVe we are authors, painters, story-tellers, dancers, lovers, creators, leaders of our DeStInIes.
I BeLiEVe if we seek to empower others, we will become empowered.
I BeliEve if we seek 2 be the best that we can be for the WhOLe, we will become whole.
I Believe that children are some of the wisest people on this earth before they are domesticated.
I BeLieVe we learn 2 value the people in our lives who love us with the most genuine, unconditional LoVe when we actually LeArn 2 truly LoVe ourselves.
I Believe that what we choose in LiFe also chooses us, and when we run the ground feels our beat and anticipates our next step.
I Believe we should surround OurSelVes with people who InSpiRe us to live more PaSsIonAtely.
I Believe Motivation is short lived, but PassIon lights a FiRe that takes our StrenGth HigheR.
I Believe we make a difference in this WoRLd by simply being a LoVing ForCe for all the people who surround us.
I BeLieve when we lose the Ego we Gain the WorLd.
I BeLieVe that what You BeLieVe will come true for you.
I BeLieVe that when we have GoldeN EyEs we SeE GolDen LiVes.
I BeLieve it is through out HeaRt that we have Sight & it is through our LiVes that we create new heights.
I BeLieve that your InTenTions become what is intended for you.
I BeLieve we are an expression and you ShouLd ExPress your LiFe Fully.
I BeLieve our LiveS are like painting a MasTerPieCe, that when we paint with passion it's evident in our work. And when we paint with love it's evident in our shades. And when we paint with one-of-a-kindness it sells like nothing has ever been sold before. And when we paint with gratitude the work tends to be gracious unto us. And when we paint all we do is express what we FEEL.
I BeLiEve I have been BleSsed, and I'm blessed to have BeLieVed.
I Believe LoVe is the way. LoVe has always been the way, and LoVe will AlWays be the WaY.
I Believe LoVe is the only thing that can bring this WorLd to it's knees, and that LoVe is the only thing that will help this WoRLd rise off of it's Knees.
I BeLieVe… oh, yes I do.

Live a Life in LOVE
LOVE is not a temporary feeling nor a temporary giving.
It’s something that should be done as a living.
Done through every inherent step we take,
Tasted in every moment that life is awake.
Felt in every beat the heart makes,
It is a constant “face” that we make.
LOVE is never lacking nor needing something from another.
It is magic that comes from within.
Yet for most souls it still remains to be uncovered.
It is given to another but never taken nor forsaken.
The LOVE from our creator is perfect in every form.
The more we connect to LOVE the more it empowers us to see
That in fact we do create our dreams.
The lacking, the emptiness, the darkness, the wilted flower, the dead seeds
Are only in need of LOVING beautifully.
It’s difficult to see clear when true LOVE has not yet overcome fear,
But it’s possible to reach higher and overcome the darkness that tends to transpire.
For the absence of LOVE is the weakness,
And the beauty of LOVE is that it is the face of our creator,
And when we allow it to run through us it will show us truth.
For there is nothing but LOVE in truth and truth in LOVE.
The light, the LOVE, the abundance all comes from above.
To cast out LOVE, to shut out the door is to welcome the darkness in forever more.
When we know LOVE we know that it runs through us all,
And denying it, denies us the beauty in life.
It is the sweet savor that is God’s only true might.
LOVE is the power of God;
God is the power of LOVE.
To think our creator would be different
Only would cause us to judge our brothers and sisters,
And what kind of God would divide his people?
LOVE is constantly where it is welcomed,
And when we cut it off, its absence is what brings us down.
LOVE is the force that will take the hate down.
LOVE is a momentum you build up inside.
The prophets who’ve gone before
Really LOVED all of mankind.
LOVE is the only true power that exists
Because in the end, it really is all that there is.
When you create anything in true LOVE
You’ll align with a force that is the only thing from above.
In every step that you take,
Give thanks.
In every breath that you breath
Ask God to help you create.
In every laugh that you share,
In every moment that you become more aware,
In every hand that you hold,
With every heart that you’ve felt,
With every chance that you get to give,
In all the light, color and beauty that you see,
In all the painful yet great lessons that you’ve learned,
In all the moments that LOVE made your heart melt,
Know that this force is greater than all the darkness that lacks the LOVE.
LOVE is, has been, and will always be our Creator.
Live a life in LOVE;
Give it away.
It will never run out;
In fact it grows day by day.
In every step that you take
Do it to make God’s LOVE great.

THEY SKIPPED MY SONG
They skipped my song
I was so sad,
But then a NEW one came along.
It was so SWEET
I FORGOT my old beat
The NEW one is now mine.
Time has changed my mind.
For my old song was perfect for my PAST,
And it played like a jam that gave me a blast,
But as I danced I moved away.
My dancing partners took me across the stage.
I found that I was turning a NEW page.
My frequency was shifting and steps were changing.
I wanted the past to stay in place,
I wanted to hold on,
And allow nothing to fall out of place.
I fought and struggled against the change.
I wanted to dictate the story.
I should be the ONLY one allowed to turn the page.
It happened oh so fast,
I didn’t have a chance to even LET GO of the past.
I had to keep dancing,
And I had to keep pace with the CHANGE,
But my emotions seemed to keep me back
For my heart lay BEHIND me,
And the pull of the Universe was AHEAD of me.
Some friends could NOT keep in the race,
And I didn’t want them to leave,
But the Universe only kept pulling me.
In tune to it’s rush
I had to stay in touch.
I had to move ahead for what was waiting
Was waiting for me,
And if I was willing to TRUST in my dreams.
I was going to have to let go and just BELIEVE.
My heart was floating out at sea
It could no longer take this feeling of uncertainty.
For when the Universe pulled me away
It gave me a NEW chance to play this GAME.
My emotions were boxed up to be released away
And all of a sudden the music has changed.
My song has a NEW name.
When I let go, the game got on a roll,
For my emotions before had CLOUDED my sight,
But now this time was different
I was leaning on God’s MIGHT.
To check in or check out or to move on,
My story was ready to HEAR the NEW song.
The resistance has stopped.
The flow of the Universe is FELT.
Don’t hold on, when it’s time to let go
Attach your WINGS
It’s time to go with God’s flow!

THE PACE-SETTER
The risk taker is my HERO;
The one who will risk it ALL
Because life without zest
Is NO life at all.
The person who plays his own beat everyday
Who has tapped into the DREAMS of this universe,
And he will strive to go boldly
Where he HEARS his calling,
Even when the critics scream in his face.
The path-MAKER, the pace-setter, the BELIEVER,
Who energizes the room when he walks in.
He’s got the whole world thinking,
“What’s he got that I don’t?”
It’s not that he’s GREATER,
He’s set apart by his BELIEF.
His LEAPS OF FAITH are what makes him a CHIEF.
Because of his fervor and STRIKING courage
They ponder the question of their own strength.
His positivity is contagious.
His MOLD leaves a story to be told.
For when he dared, they weren’t ready to dare, too.
But his leap of faith, gave him WINGS
And what he’s DONE alone seems to SING.
The crowd sits in awe,
They contemplate their own fate:
“Could I do it, too?”
“Is it in me? Or just you?”
“Could I do it, too?”
The secret of the matter is
Just BELIEVE it’s in YOU.

LIFE, POWER & THE PAST
Life is NOT what you come with,
It’s what you CREATE with what you’ve been handed.
Power is too often spent too QUICKLY.
The hands, which receive it, spend it fast.
They tend to lose their goodness and end up last.
Power is MORE than what it seems.
Some who have it
Still don’t understand what POWER really MEANS.
Power that is spent WISELY does not dwindle
In the night.
It has earned its RIGHT;
It ENDURES the evil might.
Life is NOT about controlling an experience
Nor making plans that all fall into place.
Life is going with GOD’s PACE.
Life is NOT about depletion.
Life is about contributing to Earth’s CREATION.
Life is NOT about forgetting your brother.
It’s about sharing your stride
With those who’ve stumbled as they’ve past by.
It’s about GIVING a hand to those who can’t BELIEVE
Since their journey has felt like they’ve been LOST at SEA.
Life is NOT about the picture,
It’s about the Artist.
The MEANING behind the painting is WHY it stands.
It’s beauty that’s held in the creator’s hands.
Life is NOT about what you know
It’s ALWAYS about what you sow.
It’s not necessarily about accomplishing greatness.
It’s about DISCOVERING the GREATNESS WITHIN.
For when you DISCOVER,
And you let God’s divine LIGHT be uncovered,
You see that what comes from WITHIN
Could never be compared to a GOAL-
For what truth does that really hold?
As souls of our CREATOR,
We’re great, we’ve been told.
Life is about taking CHANCES that make our HEARTS skip a beat.
A BOLD RISK to feel how human you are inside
Yet how your SOUL POWER dominates the fear
When daring to go after a PRIZE.
Life is about learning the WRONG way.
Making the MISTAKE,
FALLING completely on your face.
It’s only THEN,
It’s only THERE,
That God can REACH YOU to give you HIS strength,
And that’s when he GUIDES you up NEW stairs.
The moment you fall you’ll NEVER be the same again,
And when you let God take control,
You truly just LET GO.
The path you hit is DIFFERENT because of your PAST,
But the difference is actually BEAUTIFUL you SEE at last.
For the boulders that land in your PATH
Are NOT a mistake.
They TEACH you what you couldn’t have learned.
What you wouldn’t have LEARNED
With a leisurely walk around the park.
Your mission is DIFFERENT
Because you are DIFFERENT from what hit you.
The Universe has SHIFTED,
Yet failing is only a myth.
WHO you have BECOME
Is who you ALWAYS were meant to be.
STOP thinking your PAST was a MISTAKE.
For it taught you so much at an EXCELLERATED rate.
You OWN the NEW STRENGTH
You own the NEW SIGHT
Your NEW SHIFT was always part of your plight.
To surrender to the PAST would be wise
For your future is WAITING
Ready for you to REACH the SKIES!
Life is NOT what you THINK it should be
It is EXACTLY what you NEED it to be.
Who you are to BECOME
Is CONNECTED to everything.
Your story will consume you
If you forget to SEE
That your past is LINKED to your future,
Without the chain, you’d never be the same.
The BLESSING is YOURS when you learn to TRUST
That we GROW when we let the critic go.
It KNOWS nothing of what God has SOWN.
ALL along this was INTENDED to be
Just LET IT GO,
For GOD KNEW the PAST just had to be.

SONG: GIVE THE PAST A BOW
By TNK
It’s a powerful moment when you compile YOUR PAST
It can feel like a heavy burden
It can feel like a rock on your chest
But you can’t hold on to it
It’s a drop in time that has past its test.
CHORUS:
It takes God to let go of the past.
What has been done might be the opportunity to make you STRONG, but you can’t grow until you LET IT GO. Just turn AHEAD, the FUTURE OFFERS you a NEW tread.
When you played with ALL you had
When you’ve given your BEST INTENTIONS
When you’ve LIVED with more PASSION than one could imagine
When you’ve LOVED with more HEART than a human being
When you’ve been BROKEN you’ve got to look ahead and leave the story behind.
It’s time to write a NEW line.
CHORUS:
It takes God to let go of the past.
What has been done might be the opportunity to make you STRONG, but you can’t grow until you LET IT GO. Just turn AHEAD, the FUTURE OFFERS you a NEW tread.
Your world sits at your feet
You are afraid to pick it up
Because you fear the past will SPEAK.
Yet you know the time is NOW
Turn around and give the past a BOW.
CHORUS:
It takes God to let go of the past.
What has been done might be the opportunity to make you STRONG, but you can’t grow until you LET IT GO. Just turn AHEAD, the FUTURE OFFERS you a NEW tread.

FEED THEIR BODIES, FEED THEIR MINDS
For if you dare to go FIRST,
You set the pace
And the others will see that
IF YOU have the power to stand
Then they too can stand.
For it’s not about a call;
It’s already been made.
The world is WAITING
For us to turn a NEW PAGE.
The POWERS that I see,
Are powers we’ve been GIVEN.
For the forces that STAND
Must do it before man.
For my vision is GREATER
If we put OUR visions TOGETHER.
For FOUR pillars stand
And the leaders TOGETHER see more
In comparison than just one who’s gone before.
For what is written comes from your SIGHT
For if we dare to see HIGHER
You will SEE
Your GIVING purpose will make you a FLIER.
For we’ve been sent to SPEAK
For those who’ve lost their hope
To speak for themselves.
For if WE speak
We help them to LOOK UP,
And we help them to see their own potential.
For the poverty that PLAGUES the nations
Is because of a CORRUPT foundation.
For OUR LOVE will speak
If we dare to care
For our brothers,
For our sisters,
Need us to SPEAK
For their bodies are WEAK.
They have NO FOOD to feed their minds
And because of this
They’re LOSING their TIME.
Corruptness is often chosen
To PASS their time.
But if we could SEE
We would have FELT
That these souls NEED OUR HELP.
And if we dare to care
We will speak
For they have NOT yet spoken for themselves.
For their bodies are weak
Their FUTURES look BLEAK.
For the food they need to FEED THEIR MINDS
Is NOT there,
And they’re running OUT of TIME.
The pain they have
They pass it to others.
For they have not yet DISCOVERED
That MANKIND is CONNECTED as brothers.
We must FEED their MINDS
If we wish to FEED their SOULS.
For a life that looks bleak
Has goals that reach only as far as their bodies can EAT.
If we take their goals
And make them OUR goals
We might just reach their minds.
For love power can be FED to GIVE these humans more time.
It’s our time to STAND.
We’ve been taught that
Jesus LOVES ALL MEN.
For if we LOVE,
We will SHARE,
For their minds need our CARE.
And our power, SITS HERE
Waiting to be more than useless thoughts.
If we just dare to SEE,
If we just dare to CARE.
For it was written
That the FOUR ELEMENTS,
Air, Water, Earth & Fire
Are incomplete without
The 5th element.
The element is the 5th force;
It’s LOVE.
It causes the other FOUR ELEMENTS
To take a HIGHER COURSE.
For without LOVE
The 4 elements remain weak
Our future will REMAIN bleak,
But the 5th element
Is LOVE,
And the future is feeling our SHIFT
For poverty should really only be a MYTH.
For if my brother, is your brother
And your sister, is my sister
Than our CONNECTION to family is STRONG
It should INSPIRE use to REACH OUT
For we ALL BELONG.
It should inspire us to LOVE.
For our brother,
Our sister,
Is waiting to be rescued with our vision
And our vision will be grand
If we PUT THEM in our PLANS.
And we must,
For those who are speaking,
Their minds are hungry for our LOVE
Their message is spoken from above.
For we are NOT LIVING,
If we are not GIVING,
And the message has never changed.
The same political positions still stand
The positions have not changed
Only the people in the reigns
For if we dare to stand
We must stand for good.
For our force is only as strong as our INTENTIONS,
And if we are to truly RISE
We must pick our brother up while rising.
For our victory is only
As sweet as our ability to SHARE it.
Their victory must be entwined with ours.
For we live in the 21st century
And the MIND-power
Can work with the MAN-power
That can work with the SOUL-power
For the 1 LOVE
Is the 1 TRUE POWER.
So if we dare to RISE we must rise with the thought
That my brother is IN MY HEART.
We can only rise
If they’re part of OUR VISION,
And our FOCUS is a MANKIND mission.
For our vision is their HOPE
For this is all that they’ve been left to BELIEVE.
We are left holding on to their dreams.
For their hope is OUR POWER,
For all they have is HOPE.
We must FEED their minds
So they STOP resorting to crime.
For HOPE is POWER
And our power can FEED their HOPE.
For the hope of power
Has to be for the REAL power.
For the only REAL POWER is LOVE.
It is the ONLY thing that comes from ABOVE.
The hope of power
Can be the power of hope
If we dare to SHARE
The power we’ve been GIVEN.
Their hope will take on a NEW vision.
We must FEED their minds;
Feed their souls.
For LOVE is the 5th element
That CONNECTS the souls,
And if we are to REALLY LIVE
We must LIVE to CARE
For the message that stands
Has always been written in our hearts.
For if we just BELIEVE,
We too can bring them NEW VICTORIES.
For the SOURCE that I feel
Is REAL.
The source is LOVE.
The 4 elements are grand
But the 5th is GREATER
Its might outweighs the rest
And the men who REALLY LIVE
Are the men who have RISEN to see a greater VISION.
Love is the power of CREATION;
The 5th element is the element of implementation.
Because LOVE is the most powerful source AND force.
For with the four but less the 5th
The universe is BLIND
For the soul CANNOT SEE
Without LOVE in it’s MIND.
And the RIGHT POWER will only be FELT
By those who wish to rise
With a FOCUS that puts THEIR EGO in DISGUISE.
For the 5th element UNITES us
And it REVIVES us.
For those who feel it
Have known it’s SECRET power
This love power is ready to stand.
Can we reach out and help those
Who OUTREACH their starving hands?

MAGIC
Magic is taking a bit of the UNKNOWN,
Wrapping it into a FUTURE you can only SEE,
Taking YOUR HISTORY and mixing it in,
Then surrendering your dreams unto the POSSIBILITIES.
NOTHING is known for CERTAIN
So why not DREAM BIG?
Your BELIEF in GREATNESS
Comes from WITHIN.
Creating a MAJESTIC future
Makes you an opportunistic SOUL
To witness MAGIC
That God has bottled up
Only for those who are TRUSTED to unfold it.
Your BELIEF in MAGIC
Gives you the chance to become a MAGICIAN
If you pick up the WAND
Your magical abilities come to LIFE.
If you can SEE,
SEE the MAGIC that sparkles in front of your EYES.
You cannot manifest that which you don’t BELIEVE,
So close your eyes and SEE your DREAMS.
See them in your MIND
FEEL them in your grasp.
So the Magic can effortlessly FLOW in at last to an OPEN HEART.
Magic is only a PRIZE
For those who know how to DREAM beyond the skies,
Beyond this WORLD,
For the world that we see
Endures only as long as the BELIEVERS BELIEVE it is to be.
It is just a matter of more MAGICIANS
Really believing that this world
Is only this type of reality because it’s what we’ve made it.
If this be TRUE,
Why can’t we BELIEVE that something BETTER can be, too?
Expand your vision by BELIEVING
Create a NEW WORLD
Create a NEW DREAM
This world can be in fact
BETTER than what it seems.
Your AMAZING DREAMS
Have a chance to fit into these BIG schemes.
Dream ON, Dream BIG,
Take your MAGIC
Take your DREAMS,
Create an AMAZING NEW REALITY!
Your belief is the Universe’s command,
Dare to believe beyond this land.

TO UNDERSTAND WHAT LOVE IS NOT
My best friend left me.
No, he didn’t leave me at the altar,
But he BROKE my heart.
And he did it in a moment when I NEEDED him most.
I was vulnerable, and he KNEW it, too.
Yet, he LIED, created his own DISGUISE,
And said he did NOT know me.
I was told this, but I couldn’t believe it.
I couldn’t believe a man of his CHARACTER
Would stoop so low.
I absolutely did NOT believe he had this in his flow.
I thought I KNEW this man
I would have put money on his GOOD DEEDS.
Yet, how could he turn around and smite me?
He denied me
Like Judas denied Christ.
It was bitter and my pain was indescribable.
I was in a CRISIS and he jumped out of the car to save himself.
He left me because his face was all that he CARED about.
The story becomes sourer
As he chose to ignore me when I recovered.
It’s as if our friendship NEVER existed.
It’s as if I NEVER really knew this MAN.
He is gone,
And I’m left thinking, “What the heck were we ALL along?”
I can’t quite imagine these circumstances,
But they happened, and I could choose to crumble.
However, I just know…
It’s TIME to start AGAIN.
For a man that CANNOT STAND for what is GOOD,
For what is RIGHT,
Is a MAN that surely NEEDS to ADJUST his SIGHT.
What has happened is DONE.
I’m not amused that I was SHUNNED.
For are we not CHRISTIANS,
And do we not PREACH LOVE?
Wasn’t that his ONE MESSAGE from above?
I’m ALARMED to say that I THOUGHT I knew this man.
I’m at PEACE to say that I do NOT know him any longer.
If one is to ABANDON a FRIEND,
A CLOSE FRIEND, in a dire circumstance,
Shouldn’t they CONSIDER what THEY PREACH
Before they drive a wedge in the ground THAT IS SO DEEP?
I’m NOT a vengeful soul,
I’m NOT a bitter spirit,
I’ll CHOOSE LOVE ALWAYS over hate.
This has ALWAYS been on my plate.
What do I give to someone who took it ALL?
I’ll give him a PACKAGE with FORGIVENESS
And it will be laced in LOVE.
A PRESENT as BEAUTIFUL as this one can only be given ONCE,
And I’ll give it to him, NO strings attached.
Perhaps, maybe he could AT LEAST RESPOND back.
For when I give him the PRESENT
I’ll LEAVE it at his door
My life is no longer with a FAKE
I’m FREE to choose and MAKE it as it comes.
I walk on…
And if he so dares to RECEIVE my GIFT,
We’ll MOVE ON,
We’ll leave this behind.
But time is different NOW
And his TRUE COLORS cannot be hidden from mine.
I’ll ACCEPT his friendship,
But the stakes will be GONE
Because I have most DEFINITELY MOVED ON.
On a BEAUTIFUL journey I was,
But a painful LESSON had to be TAUGHT.
I understand NOW more than I could have,
Had this NOT been TRUE.
I move on, ALL is anew.
I wish him my BLESSINGS,
A BEAUTIFUL life
Mine is forever DIFFERENT,
But I choose to LEAVE behind any STRIFE.
I wouldn’t want it ANY OTHER WAY
I’d rather really KNOW A SOUL
Before he leads me ASTRAY.
I’d rather really know,
WHAT LOVE ISN’T
So I can really KNOW
WHAT LOVE SHOULD BE.
I’m fortunate to be BLESSED with such an EXPERIENCE.
For now my SIGHT is WISER,
And my HEART is actually BRIGHTER
To love someone who has smacked you in the face,
TO wish them well,
Is definitely GOD’S AMAZING GRACE.
To find that INSIDE of you
Is but a GOD given GIFT
You’ve reached HIGHER,
And you’ve reached FARTHER
You’ve created a NEW PATH
There will be NO score to end at last.
It’s an OPPORTUNITY to see if
You REALLY LIVE what YOU PREACH.
It’s an opportunity to SET yourself FREE.
It’s TIME to know God’s PEACE.
I left the package at his step.
I still don’t know if he picked it up yet.
I walked away KNOWING that this was GOD’S day.
For what he TAUGHT me I shall NEVER FORGET:
Forgiveness is the KEY if you wish to set yourself FREE.
I could not love deeper if I hadn’t been hit to the ground.
Now, I truly have a chance to show
That LOVE is the GREATEST POWER,
And it’s what I’m LOYAL to.
I’m NOT going to hate someone
Whose INTENTIONS LEAVE my face BLANK.
Never could I have fought more to do the RIGHT
Had he not been so low to fight.
To really COMPREHEND what
LOVE IS NOT
Is a GIFT from GOD,
For now I see, WHAT LOVE SHOULD BE.

IF YOU'VE EVER BEEN BROKEN...
If you’ve ever been BROKEN
Know that you will be WHOLE again.
If you’ve ever been MISUNDERSTOOD
Know that God ALWAYS sees the WHOLE PICTURE.
If you’re taking your FIRST STEP in a NEW direction
Know that God knows how much FAITH you’re putting in him.
If your HEART has been SHATTERED
Know that you were made for someone BETTER.
If you QUESTION their intentions
Know that God’s intentions NEVER waiver.
If you question their antics
Know that God always offers CLARITY.
If it FEELS like it’s more than you can bear
Know that God NEVER asks you to go at it ALONE.
If you feel LOST
Know you will find it ALL again.
If you feel EMPTY
Know that sometimes we weren’t meant to UNDERSTAND.
If you feel WEAK
Know that your strength will come back STRONGER than ever before.
If it feels like part of your HISTORY
Know that you still have the chance to CREATE a NEW FUTURE.
If it feels BITTER
DON’T carry the baggage.
If it STILL feels CONNECTED
Know that you still have to FORGIVE,
Know that you still have to find more COMPASSION.
For when you do
You CUT the cords,
And your history no longer sows their DISCORD.
For what caused you to BLEED
Is NOW disconnected by your divine COMPASSION,
And though you could have said more
You CHOSE not to
Because the chains only come off
When you let FORGIVENESS guide you through.
And then it becomes apparent to one
That the CHALLENGE made you CHOOSE,
A choice at a fork in your road.
You chose to LOVE and LET IT GO,
To ACCEPT and RESPECT,
For the lesser road will only take you DOWN,
And the future you are CREATING
Is not about taking a brother down.
So, you know that the HIGHER road is your KEY
If you wish to disconnect
From the disconnected seeds that tried to zap God’s AMAZING BEAUTY.
FORGIVE,
So you can FORGET.
LOVE,
So you will LET GO.
Give COMPASSION
Because you would give it to YOUR own SOUL.
Render it to GOD,
For his power is GREATER than tenfold.
Surrender to the PAST,
Leave it ALONE.
Embrace your NEW FUTURE
Love your own SOUL enough to NOT put another sword in the snow.
Lose your PRIDE,
Let the EGO die.
Choose INSPIRATION to inspirit you.
Let go of man,
Hold on to God.
BREAK the HATE
God’s LOVE is NEVER FAKE!

I'M NOT GOING TO GIVE UP
I’m not going to give up
Just because the odds say I’ll never make it.
I’m not going to say you’re right
When I FEEL you’re wrong.
I’m not going to accept your conclusion
Just because my conclusion fails to meet mankind’s CURRENT database.
I’m not going to let YOUR OPINION
Drown out my INTENTIONS.
I’m not going to LOVE less,
If you love me less.
I'm going to LOVE MORE
For your actions indicate you NEED MORE.
I’m going to GIVE my BEST
Even if the world is not READY for this test.
I’m not going to accept the victim status;
I’m here to PLAY the life God has GIVEN me.
I’m not interested in pity.
I’d rather focus on what’s gone right
Than let what's gone WRONG sour my song.
I’m NOT going to accept a world that doesn’t STRIVE to be BETTER.
I’ll put it upon myself to PRAY harder, to LOVE MORE, to REACH out farther.
I’m not going to ignore the atrocities that bleed throughout this world.
I’ll take steps, even if they’re small to contribute to a world that could be,
That should be, that WILL BE… SOMEDAY.
I’m not going to condemn my brother.
Instead I’d rather INSPIRE him to do better.
I’m not going to give up
Just because STATISTICALLY I’m not suppose to achieve something.
Who gathers that stuff anyway?
I’d rather be the FIRST and be a LONER,
Than be a SECOND, who was a DOUBTFUL believer.
I refuse to live a life with small plans.
I’d rather think BIG and hit some of my BIG TARGET
Than think small and only hit some of my SMALL TARGET.
I refuse to be selfish
When this world needs more people who are SELF-LESS.
I refuse to ever think that I cannot HELP ANOTHER
For it’s the smallest things that touch those who have gone asunder.
I refuse to live a life of judgment,
I’m here to help my brothers.
I refuse to live a life of condemnation
I was made to have COMPASSION.
I refuse to ignore the LEGENDS of the PAST.
For their stories echo on
And their souls cry out for us to HEAR their SONGS.
I refuse to trust all facts.
I KNOW that truth is subjective and depends on one’s PERCEPTION.
I know that we as a society cannot really know it ALL.
I know that MANKIND remains a humble SERVANT to the UNKNOWN;
There are TRUTHS we still shall behold.
I refuse to accept absolutes,
For what we comprehend will SHIFT as the CLOCK of mankind ticks.
I refuse to believe that certain things are impossible.
For historically we have seen that there are some AMAZING POSSIBILITIES.
I refuse to turn sour when circumstances are UNFAIR;
I’ll stay sweet and leave the bitterness out there.
I believe that life is about TESTING our SPIRITS
And if we DARE
We’ll choose LOVE, ALWAYS over FEAR.

THE MAGIC IN LIFE
The magic in life lies in our hands
For we’ve been given a dance to dance,
And it’s up to us to add more steps.
The rhythm was already in motion when our life arrived,
The music is dancing
The song is still alive.
We’re told how it should play out,
But we’d rather claim it for ourselves.
We’d rather really LIVE our life
And TRANSFORM the life we’ve been dealt.
For we’re NOT dancing a finished song,
We’re the ones who have to CHANGE
If we want the rhythm to match our song.
We’re not puppets unless we give away our tune,
We’re magicians because we follow our internal cues.
The words in the song seem to linger on,
Our magic comes to life
When we CHOOSE to pick up the wand
And take control of our life.
A chore of work it appears,
But have you forgotten, friend,
This song is about your tears,
This song is about your victory,
This song is about your dreams,
This song is what you NEED,
If you wish to grab on to all things.
For when you are out on the dance floor
You choose your step,
You choose your beat,
You choose your direction,
You choose your feat.
You claim your power on the floor,
You choose your force,
You choose your game,
You dance for you are PROUD of your name.
The magic in life lies in YOUR HANDS,
Because it depends on your will,
And how firmly you DARE to STAND.
LEGENDARY MOLD
Never do we become a more skilled athlete because our competition is weak.
Never do we become wiser because life’s lessons have been easy.
Never do we become smarter because all the answers were apparent.
Never do we attain more compassion for another by asking for a perfect ride in life.
Never do we attain more endurance when instant happenings have always been right by our side.
Never do we reach out MORE to help another by remaining absorbed in our own events.
Never do we sacrifice for another if our sight remains on ourselves.
Never do we jump higher if the basket hoop is low.
Never do we dream bigger if we think our goals are unattainable.
Never do we share more if the world feels cold.
Never do we lend a hand if we’re too afraid of another man.
Never do we look over the fence to see our brother’s side, if we believe that his good is not alive.
Never do we seek to give if we feel it will be in vain.
Never do we seek to wholeheartedly live, if we think love is not part of the game.
Never do we seek to dance if the rhythm does not match our song.
Never do we seek to light a candle, if we fear it will not make a difference.
Never do we seek to try if we believe our efforts are hidden.
Never do we seek to belong if we feel that the group is not connected to us.
Never do we seek victory if we believe it’s too big of a feat.
Never do we seek a second chance if we run and only believe in defeat.
Never do we dare to be ourselves if we believe that we are not apart of this realm.
Never do we go on if we believe we’re defeated and don’t belong.
Never do we LEARN to LOVE MORE if all have already loved us.
Never do we seek God’s strength if we’ve always had earthly support.
Never do we seek INTERNAL GUIDANCE and FAITH if we’ve always been understood.
Never do we IDENTIFY our INTERNAL power if all we need has always surrounded us.
Never do we BECOME whom we’ve been INTENDED to be all along, if our life has been nothing but roses and a sweet song.
Our soul is written in the stars when we’ve fallen far yet fought MORE to RISE high to the depths of the sky,
We’ve then become a legend to the wise.
Our battle to become a stronger soul is what glows,
It’s our goodness to fight for right that remains and continues to flow.
Let your legendary story create YOUR LEGENDARY MOLD,
Your TRUTH stands FOREVER
In the stars it’s left to create a NEW BEAUTY that unfolds.

What Makes Someone A HERO?
By TNK's VisioniSTA
Don’t Wikipedia it, I’m asking YOU a question. What does someone have to do to become classified as a hero? Do they have to accomplish something small? Something big? Does it need to be so amazing that it’s out of this world? Must they have supernatural powers, or must they be human with supernatural gifts? What element, trait, act, thought process, gift or idea makes one a hero? If you look at the heroic individuals in the past or in the present, what is a commonality that they all share? Superheroes? Heroes are individuals who have (as MJ would say) made this world a better place, impacting from 1 person to billions or trillions as in the case of some extraordinary artists and leaders.
In all actuality there is no way to quantify how many people who have been remarkably impacted by a hero. You see, the example and lessons that are left behind by figures who have positively impacted the world LIVE ON far past their death. Many legends are never celebrated like they should be in their time. Often it is through their death that the majority of people step back and examine what the individual did to contribute to the human race.
There tends to be a few commonalities that some of the greatest heroes of all time shared. They had a message in some form (art, music, dance, writing, leading, etc.) that was greater than who they were as a human being, they had an INTENTION that was greater than who they were as a human being, they cared passionately about mankind’s progress, and they internally had the courage to use their God-given talents to speak truth in some form. They spoke often for people who had lost their strength and ability to speak for themselves.
I encourage you to IDENTIFY your heroes. Start off with people who you personally know such as family and friends, and try to work all the way out to people who are only historical figures in your book. Try to understand clearly WHY the people you have selected are your heroes. What personality traits do they have in which you’d like to attain? Sincerely be grateful for how they contributed to your life even if it was in an indirect way.
Passion that LIGHTS the WORLD on FIRE comes from SOULS with PROFOUND DESIRES.
It’s never too late to live your life with the kind of PASSION that will help you achieve your dreams, and help you become a HERO to a NEW generation. Passion is attained by CARING enough where one looks to MAKE A DIFFERENCE, small or big. Please forget about the people who have told you that you can’t. They don’t know anything. The truth is, you’ve probably already made a difference in this world. If we live in a world where EVERYONE and EVERYTHING is CONNECTED, how can we BELIEVE that we are NOT making an impact on this world??!!! WE ARE EVERYDAY, whether we think we are or not. I’m not telling you to believe this, it’s a FACT that we are all CONNECTED.
Live your life with PASSION because the choices you make today affect tomorrow AND affect the world. Why choose to believe that you can’t contribute, when YOU ARE CONTRIBUTING everyday.
If you don’t believe, you CANNOT CONCEIVE. If you cannot conceive your DREAMS will NEVER be.
If your dreams FEEL impossible, look historically at the figures WHO DID THE IMPOSSIBLE. Believe YOU can do it, too.
And finally, remember we’ve all been blessed with our own unique talents. If you don’t contribute then you throw away what God has blessed you with. You forfeit your own game and you pull yourself off the court. Do you really want to live your life on the sidelines only watching all the time? Identify your heroes and pick the ones that INSPIRE YOU to be YOUR GREATNEST. We ALL are GREAT, and we have talents given from God. I can’t be who you are, and you can’t be who I am, but together, if we use what we’ve each been given we’ll go in life exactly where we need to go, and we’ll do with our lives exactly what we were intended to do.
I CAN’T do what you do, BUT I can SEE the GREATNESS in YOU. I don’t want to just see it, I want YOU to bring it to LIFE.
SIDELINE CRITICS
By TNK's VisiOnISTA
It’s the side of the road,
And if you choose it
You carry an even bigger load.
You can’t live your life
In the passenger’s seat.
Take the wheel
And drive from the driver’s seat.
Take the keys
And take control of the direction
You’re headed in.
You can’t play the blame game,
AND if you play
You’re NOT playing to win.
For you are the only one
Who chooses your path,
And when you let others choose it for you
You are still choosing it, too.
Your life has your name written all over it,
But if you give your power to another
And let them choose it for you,
You’ve once again chosen, too.
And you’ll reap what you’ve given away.
This outcome now is YOUR outcome.
Stop giving your power away;
Take it back
And EMPOWER yourself today.
You’re not a victim
Until you believe you are
For those who have faced the worst
In fact, have the most internal power
Lying dormant within.
And if you believe God has equipped you for your battles
You will ultimately see he has.
If you choose to believe you can’t overcome
Then you will never have a prayer.
You must first offer faith
Your faith will attach to belief,
Your belief in God’s greatness WITHIN you
Will set you apart from those who don’t believe.
You can only see WHAT YOU BELIEVE.
You must envision your dreams
If you wish for them to have wings.
If you feel that your life is out of your control
Start looking for the little things that you can control.
For when you dare to take your life back
You prove that dreams go BEYOND FACTS.
For people who tell you it can’t be done
Only speak for themselves,
And what mankind has yet seen.
Don’t let these souls smear your dreams.
Bind yourself with others who DREAM big, too.
For if you look at the historical facts
You will see the FIRST person to do anything
Always had to go against false seeds that were intact.
It’s never smooth sailing to be the first,
But it’s got to be the most rewarding.
Let those who wish to doubt, doubt.
For their doubt does NOT affect you
Unless you give it the power to.
Guard your dreams until you find those
Who dream like you, too.
For when your dreams are just formulating
They are vulnerable to another’s criticism.
So share them only with those who support dreaming BIG,
And with time a momentum will be created,
And the critics can have at them,
And their words will be drowned out
By the AMAZING COURAGE, STRENGTH, VISION, and FAITH
God has handed you.
For no one knows YOUR STORY like you do.
Only YOU can create your FUTURE
Only YOU has lived your PAST
Only YOU can embrace the PRESENT,
To take your talents
And make your dreams
Your NEW REALITY.
Choose to take control.
Choose to play YOUR GAME.
Let the sideline critics
Do what they’re best at:
Standing on the sidelines, watching.
Watching you jump up to the stars in the sky,
And pull YOUR DREAMS down to Earth.

TIME FOR AMERICA TO HEAL
It’s TIME FOR AMERICA TO HEAL
For we are a UNIQUE COUNTRY
And there were forces that brought this LAND TOGETHER
And MISTAKES were MADE in the PROCESS
And AMERICA’S MADE A LOT OF MISTAKES
For if you look at our YOUTHFUL COUNTRY
We’ve MADE many mistakes in our past 233 years
But the difference is, we’ve shed our tears
And we’re GROWING
Because the mistakes WE’VE Made
We’ve risen from and the RISING is getting FAST
For what we did to the INDIANS
Was because we misunderstood THEIR SPIRITS
For THESE SOULS were WISE
And they were in tune to the FORCES OF NATURE
They knew they were connected to the LAND
Yet we TOOK THEIR LAND
And we killed their bodies
But their souls LIVE ON
And the BEAUTY in the SKY
THE BEAUTY in the TREES
AND the BEAUTY that the BIRDS SING
IS their song
And they LIVE ON
For these people saw TRUE BEAUTY
And we came because we wanted their land
And we fought for it
But they couldn’t fight
For their spirits didn’t allow them to have that sight
For their SOULS were SO SPECIAL
AND They knew that LOVE was IN THE ANIMALS
And they surrounded themselves by NATURE
Because they knew of its HEALING QUALITIES
And this FED THEIR MINDS
And when the “AMERICANS” came to fight
They could NOT FIGHT
For fighting was NOT IN THEM
And the “AMERICANS” “won”
But the PRICE that was PAID
Still GOES ON to this DAY
For the INDIANS are wise
And their message still lives through them
But we haven’t YET LEARNED
That their WISDOM can be OURS
For the AMERICANS have a certain type of power
Yes, we do,
BUT NOW IT’S A MATTER OF LEARNING FROM IT, TOO.
For our POWER was given for a reason
And if we don’t use it right
IT WILL END THIS SEASON
For our power should NOT be based on keeping them LOWER
We NEED TO LIFT THEM UP
We need to HELP our brothers and sisters around the world
For they sit and they stand
And they’ve WAITED FOR US TO OUTREACH OUR HANDS
For they NEED OUR HELP
But THEY NEED ONLY a certain type of POWER
THEY NEED OUR LOVE POWER
For they know we have this POWER
And they LOOK TO US
Because they SEE OUR GOOD SIGHT
And EVEN though we’ve been known to use it wrong
They tend to still hear our song
For they know we have a certain type of power
But it’s still waiting for a different mix
For the power we have is BUSINESS POWER
But if you have a business without a HEART
I swear, IT WILL FALL APART
For we have a vision
And we definitely have SOME SKILLS
But right now we’re weak
Because we haven’t learned YET how to YIELD
For what we’ve been given
We've known we’ve been given for a REASON
But our reasoning has not brought us hope
BECAUSE LOVE was missing from this DOPE
For a BUSINESS is only as strong as a LEADER’S VISION
And if the LEADER SEEKS to build his EMPIRE,
He MUST SEEK TO BUILD HIS PEOPLE HIRER.
For the VISION of a BUSINESS
Is ONLY AS STRONG AS THE LEADER
And the LEADER without a HEART
Will HAVE A BODY
THAT will surely FALL APART
For what I’ve write, I’ve seen,
For what I’ve SEEN, I’ve FELT,
And I’ve THOUGHT HOW IN THE WORLD CAN I HELP?
For my message is as only as strong as the MESSENGERS
And I SAY
YOU CAN TEACH
For we are a people of a country that STANDS FOR FREEDOM
And we’re NOT PERFECT
BUT OUR VISION of what we STAND FOR
IS LIBERTY
And FREEDOM
FREEs the SOULS
FOR THE SOULS MUST BE FREE IF THEY’RE GOING TO SEE
For what we SEE NOW
They can’t SEE YET
For they’re waiting for our HELP
And we’re TOO BUSY worrying about helping our own EGOS
And we’ve FORGOTTEN about theirs
For the souls are crying
And their words are dying
And the POWER that AMERICA was GRANTED
Could just END
Like it STARTED
In the BLINK of an EYE
For we are the YOUNG COUNTRY
And just like the YOUTH
We have a certain type of POWER
But if we MISUSE it like we have
We’ll definitely, ultimately, LOSE IT.
For when we FOCUS on our OURSELVES
We LOSE THEM
And since we’ve FORGOTTEN
We’ve BECOME cut OFF from them
For they have a POWER, TOO
And we actually NEED THEIR FORCE if our country really wants to HEAL
For we’ve been GIVEN MUCH POWER
And as of the record we haven’t LEARNED
HOW TO USE THIS POWER
So the countries around us are becoming SOUR
And the SOULS WHO ARE SCREAMING for our HELP
Are DYING
And WE TOO ARE BLEEDING
For we’re searching for the HAPPINESS
That they have found in the SIMPLE THINGS
We NEED TO HELP THEM
SO THEY CAN HELP US
For if we HEAL THEM
They will HEAL US
For as their SOULS SCREAM
WE BLEED
For I SEE IT IN OUR EYES
We know we are CONNECTED to these GREATER THINGS
And Americans should WAKE
For much is at STAKE
For THEIR BODIES are STARVING
And their Minds are WEAK
BUT THEY have SOULS that STILL SPEAK
For they SPEAK TO US
But we’ve REFUSED TO LISTEN
And we should take a CLUE
When we’re the COUNTRY that has EVERYTHING
Yet we FEEL LIKE WE HAVE NOTHING
For we’ve FED OUR EGOS
And we’ve forgotten to FEED OUR HEARTS
For WE SHOULD CARE
For they ARE CONNECTED TO OUR SOULS
And if WE TEACH THEM
THEY WILL TEACH US
For the PUZZLE is there
And the PIECES ARE SCATTERED
But we’re BLIND
And we can’t see the LIGHT
So the pieces are LOST IN TIME
And we REFUSE TO SEE
THAT WE ARE CONNECTED TO THIS UNITY
For MY PEOPLE ARE REALLY THEIR PEOPLE
And THEIR people are really MY people
For we are ONE PEOPLE
ONE HEART
And the EARTH IS BLEEDING
Because our ENERGY is CREATING THIS CHAOS
And we refuse to listen
BECAUSE we’ve CUT OFF OUR SOUL POWER
And OUR SOUL POWER
Is the POWER that brought us here
And we’ve refused to LISTEN TO THE SIGNS
And we’re ruining MAN’S TIME
For we should LOVE
For the WAY IS LOVE
LOVE IS THE WAY
AND WE MUST LOVE OUR COUNTRY
If we’re going to HELP THEM SEE
THIS NEW VICTORY
For the HAND YOU CUT OFF
You CANNOT FEED
It’s DISCONNECTED FROM THE BODY
But the hand that bleeds,
That YOU HELP
Can HEAL
And become part of the body once again
For if you care about the WORLD
You MUST TEACH YOUR COUNTRY
And we can ONLY REACH OUR COUNTRY
IF we dare to TEACH
But we can’t JUST TEACH
We MUST TEACH IN LOVE
For this is the ONLY FORCE that comes from ABOVE
And if we really want to HELP
WE MUST BREAK this WORLD HATE FELT
We must FIRST LOVE OUR COUNTRY
LOVE OUR PEOPLE
Because when we LOVE
THEY LISTEN
And when they listen
WE TEACH.
For FORCE is WEAK
BUT POWER IS STRONG
IF it’s the LOVE POWER SONG
For we can’t teach OUR COUNTRY TO LOVE THE WORLD,
If we DON’T LOVE OUR COUNTRY
We’ll NEVER REACH THEM if we don’t teach them through our love
For we cannot LOVE THE WORLD
AND HATE OUR COUNTRY
For that would be NONSENSE
And it’s not how we SHOULD DO OUR BUSINESS
For we do have a LOVE MISSION
And if we’re going to REACH the WORLD
We must TEACH OUR COUNTRY FIRST
For if we teach they’ll LISTEN
But we must TEACH IN LOVE
For LOVE IS THE ONLY FORCE THAT COMES FROM ABOVE
You cannot FEED THE WORLD
If you don’t FEED your country, too
For America has a power
And we’re AWARE of OUR POWER
But THE WORLD HAS A POWER, TOO
And if we SHARE OUR POWER
We’re going to heal the souls from both worlds
For we ALL NEED EACH OTHER
We ALL ARE CONNECTED
And the pain you FEEL HERE
Is because YOUR BROTHER IS BLEEDING THERE
And we REFUSE TO HEAR
WE ARE ALL CONNECTED
So the pain you have felt
I’ve felt it, too
And I know what it’s like feeling blue
But we think the problem is isolated to us
But the problem is the ISOLATION our country has gone through
For the WORLD NEEDS HEALING
And our country needs healing, too
For we HAVE ALL MISUNDERSTOOD EACH OTHER
And when we dare to take down our swords
We’ll begin to see that we all connected ETERNALLY
For we need to STAND
If dare to LEND OUR HAND
But FIRST we must learn to see,
That BEAUTY IN OUR OWN COUNTRY
For it’s GOOD AND BAD
For nothing is really BLACK AND WHITE
And what WE CAN DO
Is CHOOSE TO HAVE THE GOOD SIGHT
For what we SEE
WE BRING OUT
And our minds are PLAYING TRICKS on us
Because we CHOOSE TO SEE ONLY ONE SIDE
For the world, politics and religion-
NOTHING IS BLACK AND WHITE
And the GREY scares some of us
For we’re afraid we’ll lose our sight
Of What’s GOOD.
But let me tell you about this MISSION
For we can SEE,
But You must SEE THROUGH YOURSELF
For if you LOVE
YOU will LEARN THE TRUTH
THAT CAN BE FELT
For the KEY IS LOVE
IF we WISH TO HAVE OUR SIGHT
We MUST LOVE
We MUST FIGHT FOR THE RIGHT
For LOVE is the EYE-OPENING POWER
And WHEN the way was said to be LOVE
It really was meant to be that SIMPLE
But we’ve taken our EGOS and we’ve added our ten cents
But the MIND can BE REVIVED
IF we dare to FEED IT LOVE
LOVE is the power WE NEED
TO HAVE A WORLDWIDE VICTORY
For I know, THIS VISION IS GRAND
It’s running through my hands
And I’ve been scared to speak
But your words spoke to MINE
And THE TRUTH IS STARTING TO LEAK
And the FUTURE that looks BLEAK
Doesn’t have to be
But we MUST GO IN LOVE
IF WE WISH TO CREATE SUCH UNITY
For America has a very UNIQUE POWER
We’ve GOT THE BUSINESS POWER
But we tend to MISUSE IT
And we’re about to LOSE IT
But TIME is on our SIDE
IF THE YOUTH DARE TO LISTEN
We can START THIS NEW MISSION
For OUR STRENGTH
Can be sewn in the COUNTRY
That has stood for the GOOD AND THE BAD
For black and white,
WE’RE NOT.
For the Souls of AMERICA are AWAKENING
And we’re DARING OTHERS TO SEE
That they too can AWAKEN
For our VISION CAN BE GRAND
We can put it on the GRAND SCALE
But time cannot rewind
But our HANDS CAN PREVAIL
For if we TOUCH
We must touch to HEAL
We must touch OUR COUNTRY
So the BLINDESS WILL SPILL
For we NEED TO STAND
Because we’ve STOOD FOR GOOD
And we’re fighting to find a way to help this spinning world
For it’s spinning FAST
But we can SPIN FASTER
And we’re going to grab this blindness from our COUNTRY
For our country can HELP with many things
For we TEND TO HAVE MANY TALENTS
But we’ve focused on our EGOS
And we’ve forgotten about the FREE WILLYS
And we’re creating a negative force
If we don’t change our course
And the COURSE can CHANGE if we CARE
But we MUST SPEAK with CARE
And SHOW THESE SOULS HOW TO LOVE
For if we teach them HOW TO LOVE
They will begin to LOVE THE WORLD
And we NEED to TEACH LOVE IN THIS WORLD
For what WE PREACH
They will preach
And if we hate OUR COUNTRY
THEY WILL ONLY LEARN TO HATE
We must LOVE OUR COUTRY
IF WE WANT THEM TO SEE
That there is a better VICTORY
For the souls are bleeding EVERYWHERE
And because we’re DISCONNECTED
The BODY IS BLEEDING
So we must pull the body parts BACK TOGETHER
We must sow the stitches
For the BODY IS THIS WORLD
And the WORLD IS falling apart
Hence OUR BODIES ARE FALLING PART
And the SKY is falling down
And the birds are flying low
And the smoke is killing the air
And the problem is creating a stir
For the EARTH is SHIFTING
And it’s shifting because of us
We’re the shifting power that has created the shift
And our chaos has become the EARTH’S CHAOS
For the EARTH is CONNECTED TO US
And when we drive our swords into our brothers
We drive our swords into the earth
For it is ALL ONE
And ONE IS ALL
And the CONNECTION IS THE FORCE
That is CREATING ALL OUR FALLS
For we’re falling
And we’re rolling
And the WORLD IS BLEEDING
For the SOULS ARE DISCONNECTED
And our CONNECTION IS WEAK
So we refuse to SPEAK
But we should CONNECT
And we CAN CONNECT
But we must CONNECT TOGETHER
IN THE FORCE OF LOVE POWER
For this is the only power that can SHIFT MANKIND
And I’m asking you to SEE
What I've dared to WRITE
For this KNOWLEDGE can be our POWER
But it NEEDS TO BE LOVE POWER
For if we fuel a fire of HATE
We will breed HATE
And the WORLD WILL REMAIN SOUR
But SWEETNESS can BE OUR SAVOR
But we must choose LOVE
For LOVE IS THE MAN-MOVING POWER
And it can be the WORLD-MOVING POWER
If we dare to SPEAK IN LOVE
For it’s always been about LOVE
And those who have LIVED
And GIVEN SO MUCH
Their underlying message was to LOVE
So if we are to REACH OUR COUNTRY
We MUST TEACH OUR COUNTRY
And in order for us to get THEIR ATTENTION
We must TOUCH THEIR HEARTS
For they TOO have A SOUL
And their SOUL IS CONNECTED TO OUR SOUL
And we must LISTEN
TO understand their side of the story
And even if it’s WRONG,
EVEN if it’s just THEIR PERCEPTION
We MUST LISTEN
For IF we LISTEN TO THEM
THEY WILL LISTEN TO US
And when TRUTH HITS THEIR HEART
The game will be UP
For TRUTH IS TRUTH
AND TRUTH IS LOVE
And we MUST connect to the force that comes from ABOVE
For WHAT I write
Is only A SIGHT NOW
But it can be our MISSION
Because we NEED TO TEACH LOVE
And we NEED TO HEAL THIS WORLD
But if we are to HEAL the WORLD
We must REACH OUR COUNTRY
For OUR country has it’s OWN GIFTS
Like EACH COUNTRY HAS
But when we STAND ALONE
WE FALL
And WHEN WE STAND TOGETHER
The victory becomes a NEW REALITY
THE WORLDS NEEDS TO STAND TOGETHER
For we NEED To HELP OUR BROTHERS
They are bleeding and dying
And they still FOLLOW US ON THE NEWS
Because they truly believe we are THE PEOPLE
SENT TO BRING THEM THEIR VICTORY
But we can’t drop bombs on the WORLD
For if we DO
We’re FEEDING THE HATE
And WE HAVE TO FEED THE LOVE
LOVE IS THE POWER
POWER CAN BE LOVE
WE NEED TO TEACH THESE SOULS
For we need to HEAL THE WORLD
But FIRST we must TAP into our SOUL POWER
That SOURCE IS LOVE
NOTHING ELSE BUT THAT
COMES FROM ABOVE
And we need to TEACH WHAT WE PREACH
AND WE NEED TO PREACH WHAT WE TEACH
For the FOUNDATION CAN STAND
And we should DARE TO RAISE OUR HANDS
For if WE SPEAK IN LOVE
The forces we’ll align with,
Will give us OUR SOUL POWER
We must SPEAK IN LOVE
WE must TEACH OUR COUNTRY TO LOVE
IF WE WANT OUR COUNTRY TO LOVE THE WORLD
We must LOVE OUR COUNTRY
IF WE WISH TO TEACH IT
For WE have been GOOD AND BAD
RIGHT and WRONG
And we know the world is NO LONGER BLACK & WHITE
So if we CHOOSE TO SEE THE COLOR
We must SEEK TO DO IT IN LOVE
FOR COLOR IS GRAND
And it’s TIME MAN STANDS
FOR MANKIND NEEDS us TO GIVE THEM A HAND
We NEED TO BRING THEM OUR LIBERTY.
HEAL THE SOUL
For the PEOPLE have SPOKEN
And the words are FLOWING
I’m going to keep GOING
For IF I’ve got your attention
Then I’m just going to have to mention
MORE
For the power that is in my words
Is a power that can be YOURS
For it’s NOT ABOUT POWER
It’s about a VISION
It’s about a MANKIND MISSION
For what we’ve GOT
We’ve been GIVEN
And WE KNOW IT
Our SOULS are DRIVEN
For OUR GIFTS we’re given to us for a REASON
But they’ll only last for a SEASON
And if we dare to CARE
We’re going to take A STAND
For mankind NEEDS OUR HAND
We must give our BEST
For this is truly MANKIND’S TEST
And we are to SPEAK
But we can’t SPEAK
Unless we TEACH
For when we TEACH
We LEARN
And the POWER that is THEIRS
Can be OURS
Because it’s NOT about cliché
It’s about a NEW MAZE
For the words that I SAY
Are TRUE
For it’s NOT ABOUT ME
It’s ABOUT YOU
And YOU’VE HEARD ME
Because YOU WERE WAITING
And you know that YOU HAVE GIFTS
But you have been left puzzled at this MYTH
For your GIFTS were GIVEN FOR A REASON
WITH much RHYME AND REASON
For when you USE what YOU’VE BEEN GIVEN
You help those who don’t have YOUR VISION
For they NEED OUR HELP
We need to MELT THIS HATE BELT
For LOVE is the KEY
Love is OUR MISSION
And if you truly want to FOLLOW YOUR VISION
You must LISTEN
For LOVE IS THE KEY
That unlocks the MYSTERY
For when you LOVE YOUR BROTHER
He FEELS YOUR LOVE
And LOVE is the POWER THAT HEALS
THERE IS NO OTHER FORCE that runs this course
For the doctors have spoken
And we still have our sicknesses
And the DIS-EASE continues to run its course
And the MEDS have come IN
But we STILL seem to be running A NEGATIVE COURSE
For a solution lies
Within a power in DUE TIME
But power without LOVE
IS like a soul who’s lost his SOUL POWER
For doctors seem to preach
But the words have been weak
For we take their drugs
And we still remain SICK
And our minds are DIS-EASED
We’re reaching a negative force
We must UNLOCK the MYSTERY
That wraps this course
For we try to EAT healthy
We try to BE HEALTHY
But we still are DIS-EASED
And the MIND IS SICK
For this medicine is bullshit
It’s not about the DIS-EASE
It’s about the MONEY
And we should CARE
For this truth could SAVE OUR MONEY
For the ANSWER is NOT IN OUR BODIES
It’s in OUR MINDS
We should LISTEN
For the SICKNESS NEEDS TO STOP
We NEED to FIND
The MYSTERY that’s been put in the bottle
For the medicine is ONLY as strong as the BODY
And the BODY is only as STRONG AS THE MIND
So WHY have we NOT DISCOVED the answer
To the DIS-EASES of MANKIND?
For it’s NOT about the sickness
It’s about the DIS-EASE
It’s about an UNBALANCED ENERGY
For what are we?
And what have we BECOME?
Disconnected SOULS listening
To the minds that Listen to the MONEY
We cannot HEAL others
UNTIL WE HEAL OURSELVES
And it’s not about taking a PILL
It’s about GIVING LOVE that is REAL
For our forces run THROUGH US
And SICKNESS IS ONLY IN THE MIND
If we’ve done certain things in our TIME
For we need to consider the medicine that we take.
Why don’t we give LOVE to our SOULS,
And see what UNFOLDS?
For it’s not a DIS-EASE
It’s UNBALANCED Energy
For what we THINK
WE BECOME
AND what we SAY
Comes OUR WAY
But ALL HOPE IS NOT LOST
For GOD’S Grace is always sought
And it’s not about taking pills
It’s about loving the signs
For the signs are that
THE MIND is STRONGER THAN THE BODY
So why do we fix the BODY when the MIND is WEAK?
It’s not about the body it’s about the MIND
And we must heal our MINDS with LOVE
For LOVE IS THE STRONGEST FORCE THAT COMES FROM ABOVE
It’s not about taking,
It’s about HEALING.
So if YOU WISH to SAVE YOUR MONEY
You should FEED YOUR MIND WITH LOVE
For the MIND is STRONGER THAN THE BODY
This we KNOW
They say it’s so
So why do we seek to heal the body, instead of the SOUL?
For the SOUL is THE BODY
And the BODY IS THE SOUL
And we must TEACH THIS LOVE.
For before we can HEAL others
WE must heal our own SOULS
And LOVE is the POWER
POWER IS THE LOVE
We must LOVE OUR SOULS
For LOVE will HEAL ANYTHING
And the body is weak when the mind looks bleak
For when you HEAL your MIND
You HEAL YOUR SOUL
FOR your MIND is STRONGER THAN YOUR BODY
AND YOUR BODY
Manifests from what you SEE IN YOUR MIND
SEE LOVE.
Love through your days
And you will FIND MUCH LOVE IN YOUR SOUL
For LOVE is GOD
GOD IS LOVE
GOD HEALS WITH HIS LOVE
You DON’T NEED MAN’s medicine
You NEED GOD’s HEALING TOUCH
For HIS LOVE IS WHAT HEALS
And YOUR HEALING of YOUR MIND
HEALS YOUR SOUL
For the truth HAS STOOD
But those who have known
Have been MISUNDERSTOOD
The PEOPLE can bring back the LOVE POWER
If we dare to HEAL the power that brought us here
For the truth stands
It always has stood
But we’ve been scared to HEAR
For it will surely rattle this SPHERE
But if we SPEAK
It WILL BE HEARD
For TRUTH is our MISSION
And LOVE IS OUR VISION
We’re on a TRUTH LOVING MISSION.
For if we want to HEAL
We must HEAL our MINDS
Our MINDS will HEAL OUR BODIES
And the LOVE WILL FLOW
For if it’s blocked
We SEE DIS-EASE
And we’ve DESTROYED
God’s ENERGY.
For it can’t be about HEALING OTHERS,
BEFORE WE HEAL OURSELVES
LOVE is the POWER WE NEED
If we truly WANT TO SEE
We need to HEAL OUR MINDS
For our bodies are SICK
And they’re sick because the MESSAGE has DIED.
But it CAN COME ALIVE.
For if you TRUST IN FAITH
You will put your FAITH IN LOVE
Love will take your faith
And HEAL your MINDS
For the body needs a HEALTHY MIND
Before it can run this COURSE IN TIME.
For it’s not about SICKNESS
It’s ABOUT DIS-EASE
It’s ABOUT UNBALANCED ENERGY.
For if the MIND is SICK,
The BODY BECOMES SICK,
And we’d rather think that it’s out of our hands
But if you really want to HELP THIS WORLD
We have to have STRONG BODIES
To carry OUR MESSAGE
For we ARE YOUNG and our bodies are still STRONG
But we must HEAL OUR MINDS
For the Mind controls the BODY
And the MIND is ALWAYS STRONGER THAN THE BODY
And this FEELS like a lot to digest
But it’s NOT that hard to manifest
For you just NEED TO LOVE
And when LOVE is your MISSION
The LOVE will FLOW THROUGH YOUR BODY
And your Mind will be the strongest force of ENERGY
For the BODY is ONLY as HEALTHY AS THE MIND
And we must FILL OUR MIND with LOVE
LOVE is GOD’S HEALING TOUCH
If you LOVE,
The energy will flow
Your Soul WILL BEGIN TO GLOW
LOVE YOUR SOUL
For YOUR SOUL is STRONG
And it KNOWS IT HAS A MISSION
But we’ve been told we cannot have OUR VISION
But I TELL YOU to BELIEVE
For the story has been TOLD WRONG
The WRONG STORY has been PASSED ON
It’s TIME to SPEAK THE TRUTH
For the TRUTH SPOKE TO US
And those who HAVE KNOWN
Have been afraid to SHARE
But NOW it’s a MATTER of
IF WE REALLY CARE
For the message CAN BE TAUGHT
And it MIGHT be TRICKY
But we have TIME
And we’re getting itchy
For it NEEDS TO BE SPOKEN
For it once was WRITTEN
But it has been HIDDEN
And those who KNOW
Don’t know if they should SHARE
But it’s TIME WE CARE
For if we CARE in TIME
We’ll help those who are on OUR MISSION
For their VISIONS are GRAND
And we NEED TO TAKE THE STAND
For it’s TIME TO FEEL THE LOVE THAT IS REAL
For it’s not about us, it’s about them
And we NEED TO LEND A HELPING HAND
We need to RUN THIS COURSE
For mankind is WAITING FOR TRUTH
The truth should be DELIVERED
For the DIS-EASES are making us SICKER
And when our minds are CORRUPT
The body gets weak
And OUR FUTURE LOOKS BLEAK
IF we can HEAL OUR MINDS
With the HEALING POWER OF LOVE
Our bodies will be STRONG
And OUR MISSION will be in REACH
And we’ll BEGIN TO TEACH
For the hypnotists have said
“It’s all in your head.”
Well, YES and NO
It’s more like IN THE MIND
And the mind has eaten the ENERGY that makes it weak
It’s NOT about telling yourself to get better
For that DOESN’T CHANGE the energy
It’s about LOVE
LOVE is GOD’S HEALING TOUCH
LOVE can offer the MIND-BODY SO MUCH
For if I SPEAK
YOU SPEAK
WE SPEAK
And it will BE HEARD
For people are PLANTING SEEDS
But they’re still waiting
For THEY NEED OUR HELP
And WHAT WE KNOW
We’ve been scared to SHOW
But we NEED TO CARE
For it’s TIME to SPEAK THE TRUTH
For TRUTH HAS SPOKEN
And if we LOVE
It WILL BECOME CLEAR
For LOVE has always been THE WAY
This is GOD’S HEALING TOUCH
HEAL with LOVE
LOVE WILL HEAL
For it’s NOT about taking pills
It’s about TAKING ENERGY
And LOVE is the STRONGEST ENERGY
It’s the STRONGEST FORCE
It’s the POWER that RUNS
THE HEALING COURSE
For the WISE have KNOWN
And they don’t know how it can be SOWN
I don’t know either
But I know if we GO IN LOVE
The MESSAGE will COME FROM ABOVE
For the SOULS are BLEEDING
And the DIS-EASE is SPREADING
And if we WATCH
We’re NOT LISTENING
We must DARE TO STAND
For the truth was written ages ago
But it’s been hidden in the greed that FLOWS
We must be the SOURCE to STOP THIS FORCE
For LOVE is the ONLY TRUE POWER
If we’re going to STOP THEIR POWER
We must go with LOVE POWER
For LOVE TOPS them all
For LOVE will HEAL THEIR SOULS
For it’s NOT that they’re BAD
It’s just that they’ve let the MONEY DRIVE THEM MAD
We must help them to SEE
We can only help them to SEE THROUGH LOVE
For they MUST FEEL DISCONNECTED
If they’ve chosen this course
To try and ruin the LOVING FORCE
We must CONNECT TO THEIR HEARTS
For that is OUR POWER
For we go in the POWER TO LOVE
NOT THE LOVE TO HAVE POWER
For we KNOW THAT LOVE
IS THE ONLY TRUE POWER
And if we are to REACH
The MASSES
We MUST BEGIN TO TEACH
We must GO IN LOVE
This is the HEAVENLY FORCE FROM ABOVE
For it was once written
But it has been hidden
And the MEDINCE
IS MESSING WITH OUR MINDS
And it’s taking AWAY OUR PRECIOUS TIME
For it’s scary to THINK
That what we’ve been TAUGHT
IS WRONG
But I DARE you to LISTEN
TO THIS LOVE SONG
For THE POWER in OUR MINDS
Runs THROUGH our BODIES
And what we THINK
WE BECOME
And the BODY
REFLECTS the SOUL
The SOUL IS STRONGER THAN THE BODY
So WHY don’t we HEAL THE SOUL?
WORDS WITHOUT A SOUL
The truth is hidden
For it has remained only written
And you can’t read when you should FEEL
For words are like a body without a soul
And the readers give the words their own life
So if you SEARCH for TRUTH you will NOT READ IT
For the books have been written but then books only contain WORDS
And Words are like a body without a SOUL
For who speaks them gives them power,
THEIR OWN POWER
So, those who have SPOKEN
Have SPOKEN
RIGHT AND WRONG
SO the messages have left the souls BLEEDING
And the souls are STILL SEEKING
For truth is there
THIS THEY KNOW
They ONCE WERE TOLD
But now they can’t find
What was LOST IN TIME
For the words have been used
And souls have died
For WORDS that were written.
And WORDS ALONE
Are like a body without a SOUL
For whomever SPEAKS THEM
GIVES THEM LIFE
And it’s BEEN RIGHT AND WRONG
For the truth cannot be READ
It must be FELT
It’s there
YOU MUST TAP INTO THE LOVE THAT CAN BE FELT
For LOVE knows THE WAY
What did JESUS SAY?
Love is the KEY TO TRUTH
Truth is the KEY TO LOVE
You must FEEL THE LOVE
TO SPEAK THE TRUTH
For truth is ONLY
As STRONG AS THE SOULS WHO DARE TO SPEAK
We must share what we KNOW
For the people are seeking
And the souls are bleeding
Because they READ THE WORDS
And WORDS are like a body without a SOUL
For whomever FINDS THEM
Pulls them into their own HOLE
And so TRUTH THAT WAS WRITTEN
Was written right and wrong
But I can’t write the truth
For WORDS are like a body without a SOUL
And the SOULS WHO SPEAK THEM
GIVE THEM THEIR POWER
If you wish to speak TRUTH
You MUST SPEAK WITH LOVE
FOR LOVE IS THE POWER THAT COMES FROM ABOVE
Your words become my words
My words become your words
If we CARE
We must SPEAK TRUTH
If we wish to speak truth
We must SPEAK IN LOVE
For LOVE is the power that comes from above.
Some of the truth was written
It’s in the books
But WORDS ALONE
Are only as strong as the souls who READ THEM
For words
CAN HAVE MANY DIFFERENT MEANINGS.
And YOU WANT TRUTH,
I CAN'T WRITE TRUTH
You have to FEEL IT
The only way to FEEL IT,
IS TO LOVE.
LOVE IS THE WAY.
THE WAY IS LOVE.
For truth is hidden
But only hidden in the HEART
And if YOU DARE
You might just become smart
For the LOVE
IS THE POWER
And REAL POWER
Is LOVE.
For the GREATEST SOULS
Who have walked this EARTH
Walked in LOVE
THEIR MESSAGE
WAS LOVE
Message the LOVE FORCE
For this LOVE
Is the only TRUE POWER
If you want POWER
You must do it IN LOVE
LOVE IS SOUL POWER
If you dare
You will care
For the words that were written
Were ONLY WRITTEN
And words ALONE
Are like a BODY WITHOUT A SOUL
For the SOULS who SPEAK THEM
Give them their POWER
And sometimes it’s been right
But usually wrong
For we NEED TO BE PEOPLE OF SOUL POWER
For if we LOVE
We become GOD’S TRUE FLOWER
Love is the NAME OF THE GAME
Truth is
Truth has been
But I can’t write it
You have to FEEL IT.
And you can ONLY FEEL IT
If you dare to LOVE
LOVE IS THE KEY
This KEY unlocks the MYSTERY OF MANKIND
But I can’t write it
You have to FEEL IT
For my words are only as strong your words
And if you SPEAK
I SPEAK
And TRUTH WILL BE SPOKEN
For the people are stilling seeking
Their souls are still bleeding
But they continue to SEEK
For they once were told
And they’re scared to leave the fold
For they know THEY ARE GOOD
But the TRUTH
That has been WRITTEN
Is MISLEADING
And the messengers who have come
Came for the GOOD
For they LOVED
THEY LOVED MANKIND
But the words that were written
Were written RIGHT AND WRONG
And you can’t read MINE
Until you UNDERSTAND THIS SONG.
For it’s never been about the MESSENGER
It’s ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT THE MESSAGE
And THEIR LOVE
CAN BE OUR LOVE
IF WE ALIGN OUR FORCES WITH THOSE
WHO’VE LIVED THE GIGANTIC LOVE COURSES.
For YOUR TRUTH
Is only as STRONG AS MY TRUTH
When you WAKE
WE WAKE
For it’s been written
But it was WRITTEN
RIGHT and WRONG
Love is the KEY
If you WISH TO UNDERSTAND THE WRITING
For their SOULS were TRUTH
But the WORDS that were written
Were ONLY as STRONG AS THE WRITERS
For WORDS ALONE
Are bodies without a SOUL
Those who speak them
Give them their OWN LIFE
And if we WISH TO SPEAK TRUTH
To KNOW TRUTH
We FIRST must FEEL IT
For TRUTH is TRUTH
But the TRUTH IS LOVE
Love is the KEY
TO tap into this TRUTH
LOVE YOUR WAY TO THE TRUTH
LOVE IS THE WAY
TRUTH IS THE LOVE
LOVE IS TRUTH
For those who have known
Have been SILENT
For their words have not come
But the TIDE is CHANGING
For the TRUTH CANNOT BE WRITTEN
IT CANNOT BE WRITTEN
For TRUTH IS ONLY AS STRONG
As the DELIVERY
And WORDS ALONE
Are like a BODY WITHOUT A SOUL
So we’ve become DISENCHANTED
And we REMAIN DISCONNECTED
Because the TRUTH that we’ve been told
Just doesn’t seem to FLOW
But TRUTH IS ALIVE
It NEVER HAS DIED
You must seek TRUTH FROM the LOVER’S EYES
For JESUS knew the STRONGEST POWER WAS LOVE
And he said LOVE
LOVE IS THE WAY TO FEEL TRUTH
If you LOVE you WILL FIND TRUTH
For words that are written
Are like a BODY WITHOUT A SOUL
And the SOUL who speaks them
Is only as STRONG as the LOVE THEY HAVE INSIDE
So if you wish to FEEL TRUTH
Find the LEADERS who know HOW TO LOVE
For LOVE is THE POWER
And POWER IS THE LOVE
It’s time the world ENDS this LOVE FOR THE WRONG POWER
For if we know TRUTH and TRUTH KNOWS LOVE
We will Teach this world the TRUE LOVE
For TRUE LOVE cannot be written
It can only be FELT
You must FEEL THIS ONE OUT
If you SEEK TRUTH
SEEK LOVE
LOVE
LOVE
LOVE
LOVE IS THE key TO the secret MYSTERY
For those who have LOVED
Helped us the MOST
But THEIR SOULS ARE STRONGER THAN THE WORDS
For the words that have been written
Are RIGHT AND WRONG
But I can’t write TRUTH
I can only FEEL IT
You can FEEL IT, TOO
FEEL THE LOVE
LOVE IS THE FEEL
For this world NEEDS OUR LOVE
And if we are to HELP THIS WORLD
We must SPEAK TRUTH
For the Truth that has BEEN WRITTEN
Is RIGHT AND WRONG
And if we wish to SERVE this WORLD
We must GO IN LOVE
LOVE IS ONE
ONE IS LOVE
You must LOVE TO FIND THE ONE.
FOR THE ONE, IS LOVE.
LOVE is the ONLY FORCE that COMES FROM ABOVE.
And we ONCE KNEW THIS
But we’ve read the words that were written
And words that are written
Are bodies without a soul
For the souls who speak them
Give them their power
And there have been those who have MISUSED THEIR POWER
But I dare you to
GO
IN LOVE POWER
For LOVE POWER
IS our TRUE SOUL POWER
YOUR SOUL POWER is Connected to LOVE POWER
Go IN YOUR SOUL LOVE POWER
For power that has STOOD FOR AGES
Was written in LOVE
And what has been written
Was right and wrong
But I CAN’T WRITE TRUTH
For words ALONE
Take bodies of their own
And people are led astray
But we can SHOW them the WAY.
The WAY IS LOVE.
LOVE is the WAY.
LOVE THROUGH YOUR DAYS.
For the truth will be FELT
For it CAN’T BE WRITTEN
For words ALONE
Are bodies without a soul
But the SOULS stood for LOVE
And THEIR FORCES are STILL HERE
Because WE ARE STILL HERE
THEIR LOVE HAS KEPT US
But we must TEACH THIS LOVE
But FIRST, we must FEEL IT
For WE CAN’T GIVE IT OUR OWN WORDS
We must let the WORDS OF LOVE SPEAK IT FOR US
So if you take YOUR TALENTS
And I take MY TALENTS
We might just be able
To help this world FEEL THE LOVE
LOVE has to be FELT
For TRUTH IS LOVE
LOVE IS TRUTH
Can you Feel the LOVE?
Feel the TRUTH
Truth was TAUGHT IN LOVE
Love can be taught in TRUTH
Teach TRUTH
TEACH IN LOVE.
THE PATH of LoVe
For the generations that still live with us
Still SPEAK to US
Their WISDOM is STILL HERE
And what they SPEAK
Has BEEN SPOKEN
But if we don’t listen
We’re losing
For what we TEACH
We TEACH TO THEM
But what they teach
They TEACH TO MEND.
For THEIR EXPERIENCE
Can be OUR EXPERIENCE,
But we’ve blocked them out
Because there have been seeds of doubt.
And though we’ve heard their words
We haven’t FELT THEIR HEARTS,
For their wisdom is GREAT
But their souls have become faint
And what we treasure from our generation
We should SEEK from their generation
For they’ve lived a long life
And they’ve seen OUR STRIFE.
They want to help
To teach us to take a better step
But they can’t reach us
If we don’t let them teach us.
For their words have been heard,
And they wish to SPEAK
For their SPEAKING is LIVING,
BUT the LIVING STOPPED SPEAKING.
And if we learn to HEAR THEIR HEARTS
Their wisdom will pull the pain apart.
For they know us
Better than those around us
For they’ve seen it all
They’ve seen OUR LIVES from the BEGINNING
And they wish to SPEAK
For they DON’T want to SEE OUR ENDING,
Before their Ending.
For THEIR SOULS live on THROUGH US
And what they’ve taught us
Was bought with a price
For they have already suffered the cost
And they want us to SEE
That we must SEE what they’ve already SEEN.
For if we wish to TRULY STAND
We must have TIME ON OUR HANDS,
We can’t waste time learning the lessons
That mankind already has felt.
We need to look to the people
Who’ve already got their own experience under their belt.
For their wisdom is a bridge
And when we take it
WE LEAP
For we’re NO LONGER WASTING TIME
Spent learning painful lessons that make us weak.
For they make us strong in the end,
But they take time from our mind
And our soul would rather learn quicker,
And WE CAN,
If we just listen to the souls who’ve already walked the path we’re on.
For if TIME is TRULY TO BE ON OUR HANDS
We must TAKE TIME whenever we can.
For we have ONE TIME to spend.
And their world can bridge our world
For we want to GO HIGHER
We want to BUILD THIS EMPIRE.
But first we must learn the lessons that have already transpired
For their WISDOM is ON TIME
If we dare to listen
For their message, too
SHARES OUR VISION
For THEIR WISDOM is GREAT
Even if their bodies have become faint
And we prize the minds of people in our generation
More than the people who can SEE OUR GENERATION.
We must SEEK their WISDOM,
For their bridge will take us higher
And OUR DREAMS
Will be part of their seams
For what they’ve sewn,
They’ve already felt
And if we dare
We should ask them for their HELP.
For OUR VISION
IS only as STRONG as THEIR VISION
And if they ADD FUEL TO THE FIRE
Our Visions will co-inspire.
For their victory can be ours
Their pain can be felt
If we let them teach.
We will not SPEAK,
For their WORDS HAVE POWER
And we MUST LISTEN BEFORE we CAN TEACH
For teaching is ALL ABOUT WISDOM POWER.
For the generations before
Who still share this same world
Our here for a bit more time
We MUST PICK THEIR MINDS.
For what they SEE
THEY’VE SEEN BEFORE
And THEIR WISDOM will teach us MORE.
We cannot SEEK to FIND THE ANSWERS in each other,
For our bodies our young, even if our souls are old.
We must ask them what they’ve seen
For they’ve been through the valleys
They’ve risen and they’ve fallen
And if we dare we WILL NOT REPEAT
For the mistakes we make our fine
That teach us much, in due time.
But we WANT TIME
So we must learn from a different level
We must speak to those who have already learned,
For if we do, we won’t walk the path that already has been trodden
We’ll take the NEW PATH
That is OURS
For we can learn from their lessons
So we don’t repeat the lessons.
For it’s often repeated
And we remain defeated
Because OUR TIME IS WASTED
And we’re doing the same things
Progress is being sucked up by the blind things.
We must TAKE OUR TIME BACK
WE MUST LISTEN
For their words will increase our pact.
Their wisdom is there
They WAIT, FOR THEY WISH TO SHARE.
For the bridge they offer us, will take us FARTHER
If we ignore,
The route will be longer,
The pain will be stronger,
And we will have spent our time
On the foolish side.
For they wait to share
Since they have ALWAYS CARED
And if you DARE TO LISTEN
You might just see they can ADD to your MISSION
For they know more than we think
And we tend to THINK more than we KNOW.
For when we LOVE THEM
Their words will surely flow.
And their pain will be felt,
And their bridge will be OFFERED,
And our TIME will be GIVEN,
And an EXTENSION will be granted
For our TIME IS POWER
For we are YOUNG
And OUR VISION
HAS NOT YET GONE SOUR
For they have wisdom
And we NEED THEIR WISDOM
And EVEN if THEIR BELIEF
Has become weak
WE WILL SURELY SPEAK.
For the vision we still have
They once did, too,
But this time we’re going to take their wisdom
And it implement, too.
For our TIME IS OUR POWER
For our bodies our YOUNG, even though our souls are old.
And we must TEACH OUR GENERATION
The things we’ve been told.
For the group that stands with those who’ve stood
Will stand ahead
For they listened to their stories,
And the wisdom that was passed
Passed on to the YOUNG
And the YOUNG STILL HAD THEIR VISIONS
For their SIGHT had been PROTECTED
And they dared to STAND
For when they STOOD
THEY stood for the souls
Who brought them here.
For THEIR WISDOM
Can be OUR WISDOM
And OUR VISION
Can reignite THEIRS
We are the power of TIME
For TIME is OUR GLORY
Our bodies are YOUNG
And we’ve got the will to FIGHT
For what always FELT to be RIGHT
For they are ending their time with us
But if we LISTEN,
Their words will remain with us
And our VISION will be GRAND
Because they too, will STAND.
For when we HEAR THEIR WISDOM
They hear our DREAMS
AND that my FRIEND
IS THE FIRE THAT WILL FUEL
The SCHEME.
For our strength is because of theirs
And they’ve fought for us
And we are here because of their fight
They have their stories
But we STILL HAVE THE SIGHT.
And we have to take what they offer,
The power will STEP IT UP
And the force we’ve got will take a NEW FORM
For what they speak,
Has been spoken,
But we have not listened,
And if we dare to care
Their message will SHOW OUR MESSAGE
That we must stand,
For they once stood.
And though they fought,
They lost,
And we feel their pain,
And their strength will FEED OURS,
For once they see that we have a vision,
That too will want to be part of OUR MISSION.
Their time is ticking
And the ticking won’t stop.
But if you listen you might just grab the clock.
For the clock of mankind is ticking,
And our progress is moving,
But moving it is, only if we dare to be
Part of the movement that connects eternally.
For THEIR MESSAGE IS TRULY THE SAME AS OURS
And they once believed, too,
But this time if WE LISTEN
We BRIDGE the TWO WORLDS
And with their wisdom WE GAIN TIME
For we no longer have to waste
Blowing the mind.
They can teach us what we can’t teach ourselves
Unless we want to waste our time learning the lessons
That tend to repeat themselves.
The time is ticking for them to speak,
For if they speak,
THEN WE SPEAK,
And when we speak, we speak to them
And when they speak, they speak to us
For our CONNECTION IS GRAND
They’ve already walked this land.
And we must DARE TO BRIDGE the worlds
For their bodies are fragile,
But their messages still PREVAIL
And OUR FORCE OF POWER
Is connected to the LOVE TOWER.
For as they look down and shine their light
THEIR LIGHT shows us the way
Our visions become GRANDER
Because of the words that they SAY.
If we dare to LISTEN
They will speak,
And WE will SPEAK TO EACH OTHER,
For they have the wisdom WE NEED.
For we need TIME ON HANDS
IF WE REALLY PLAN TO DO THESE GREAT THINGS.
We NEED THEIR TIME
If we're going to SPREAD OUR WINGS.
