Follow your Dreams

 

People move around and around the world, until they are put into the ground

To different locations trying to find something that can never be found

 

An emotion or a concept that can never be acquired

An idea that has been implanted to put your drive on fire

 

To influence your actions to act on some kind of motivation

Motives that seem right, but in the end you'll be filled with frustration

 

Frustration will be experienced because happiness

Is not viewed as something valuable, but viewed as weakness

 

In this world, the poorest and the happiest is viewed as the laziest

And the richest and the miserable is viewed as the greatest

 

If you strive for something that is out of your interest to survive

Your a fool because you are living a life as a lie

 

Because you are following the voice of society

That screams lies to mess with your mentality

 

To manipulate what's inside to earn something that doesn't matter

Processions and objects that will one day scatter

 

To different hands that are not yours

Because objects are not constant even if it fills up your core

 

Do not follow the ideals of society, but the emotions of the interior

They are more powerful, logically making it more superior

 

It is the content within the soul that drives your deepest desires

It is what allows you to open your eyes with passion to satisfy the fire

 

That exist within your soul that is made real by your dreams

In order for you to achieve greatness to make your life free

 

From all oppression that have been created by your peers

That had caused you to be filled with frustration because of your fears

 

Do not live a life filled with regret

Follow your dreams every second and every minute before you forget

 

What made you scream for joy due to your satisfaction

Life is sacred and rare because yours is close to extinction

 

Once its gone its gone, so achieve what you love

Achieve what makes you soar happily like a white dove

 

Enjoy the flowers and the wind

Enjoy the rivers while you swim

 

Remember that their is always time to smile

Within the mile that you walk below a clock that doesn't wait not even for a little while

 

Life is always moving, so fight for the light at the end

The best things are love, peace, family, and friends

 

Do not take your time to realize that gold is not everything

Because their is more to life like the beauty of spring

 

That surround us everyday but we choose not to see

Because society tells us that money is key
