What do you live for?

How do you pursue your dream when you've never known it?

Own your self when you've never known it?

You weren't the star raging in with goals and dreams

Planning out their life from behind galaxies long before time

Straighlining to their peak - a perfect scheme that everyone sees

Or are you?

 

You envy for their air, their life

Envy those who know themselves

Envy them that express it

 

If you're lost in yourself you have no clarity

Peace peace to your soul

 

You've got it

            Keep going because whatever you are is in you

whatever is there to express is existing 

just don't be ashamed

don't be afraid

Acknowledge the honor and power to be yourself
