"the People" by cifeozo: 11:08pm On Nov 09, 2007 |
Raise your glasses to the people, The ones who make everything look simple, They can see the future through the eyes of an eagle, The wise ones who know life’s not a sample, You live once, better find an example, Be the best by any means possible. Never underestimate the power of the people, Their sweat, the catalyst for the growth of a nation, Trying to provide a better future for the next generation, There’s honour in their search for salvation. Put your hands together for the people, Struggling in the face of so much adversity, There’s beauty in the strength of their versatility, There’s hope in the beauty of their creativity, It’s a bittersweet drama set in reality. Stand up for the people, The streets are filled with unsung heroes, Each one of them with thousands of their own stories, Young faces with grown minds, Young minds with grown up scars, They grow up too fast, In a youth that doesn’t last. Let’s celebrate the people, The ones who’ll never feel unequal, The ones with the drive to never be second best, They forget the myriad of excuses, They prepare for the tests that life may present, They rise up,above all the problems and reasons why not, This here is us,here to succeed no matter what,we’re the people http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=1374222, |
