The Daily Boost #768

Be the change

BE THE CHANGE
Cilette Swann & Roman Morykit

We are flesh and bone
We are parts unknown
We are ashes
We are dust

We are rogues and kings
We are bold extremes
We are jury
We are judge

We are strength and heart
We are miles apart
We are one
We are love

We are hopes and dreams
We are noble beings
We are diamonds in the rough

Have we lost sight of all we are
Forgotten history and its scars
Reduced ourselves to doubt and fear
Given up what we hold dear

Freedom is won and fought
Lives are lost and souls are bought
But lasting freedom lives inside
Within our hearts and in our minds

So be the change you wish to see
Be the peace that sets you free
Be the love you want to feel
Be the cure that helps you heal

Be the dreams that you desire
Be the spark of your own fire
Be the future you inspire
Be the wings that take you higher . . .
