LOOKING FORWARD
Looking Forward!
Another step closer to tomorrow
Not walking back to yesterday
If you see what he sees
You'll see the possibilities
"But the past stands to last!"
You're dwelling!
What's done is done
You're killing!
This is now.
Start looking forward.
"But the past stands to last"
So WHAT!
We're Looking Forward!
---Don't let the past rob you of your future. We all make mistakes and dwelling on them gets you no where. The living God is always focusing on our potential and future. Learn to know what God has for you and run toward it.
YOU BE YOU
Just be your self
Their gossip is a waste of breath
Taking it to heart will only bring death
Destruction to your own success
Who cares what people think and say?
It's your own life, make it stay that way.
That thing you hold on to, live it out day to day.
I may be young to you, but I stand by what I'm called to do I'm just me, you be you
Live out, what you say
Speak out, what's locked away
Just be your self,
I'm just me, you be you
---Live your life. Getting caught up in judgement and slander is a waste of time. Let what is in your heart be heard and stay true to your self.
SUBMITTED We pride ourselves as a nation to be all accepting,
But when it comes to someone succeeding,
We kick them in the shins.
No running toward what you're dreaming for,
Keep your mouth shut, your voice shall not be heard.
Why do we cut you down, Leaving you beaten on the ground?
Submitted to a life of mediocrity, it holds us down.
---Tall Poppy Syndrome. Why can't we support the success of those around us? Instead, we continously cut them down, and level them out.
ONE BLOOD
We have our differences / Our thoughts collide,
We Keep our distances / Causing us to divide, When we act on different sides,
There's frustration and disappointment in my mind.
Two bodies, two minds, two lives,
We'll stand together to fight,
One moment, one need, one expectation,
I'll be by your side.
Differences aside – we are,
One Blood.
---This one's about the relationship between me and my brother. We are two different people. We'll have our scraps and disagreements - but in an instant, all of that is put aside and we are there for each other.
BLACKOUT!
What are we afraid of?
Do we fear consequence?
It's consuming our persistence.
Everyday is a cry for more
So what are we waiting for?
Step out for those in need
They live and bleed like you and me.
Light dawns a new day
But we're in a blackout
Darkness falls at your face
And we're in a blackout
City lights are out
We're living in a blackout
Open your eyes from the Disney fantasy
Lies lived out
We're living in a blackout!
---Poverty is not a word only for the third world. It's right here in our neighbourhood and our communities. We have more than enough, so lets stop turning a blind eye to these circumstances and start assisting with change in anyway possible.
