.
Through no fault of your own
you tumbled down a hill,
pushed by your circumstances.
Maybe it was not your fault,
but it was your choices.
.
Who determines what we are?
What decides who we become?
Change is a dream,
as surely
as rising out of poverty.
.
Blessed are the poor in spirit,
Blessed are the lame,
Blessed are those who hunger,
they aren’t ever caught up in the game
of politics and power,
but it’s with their lives they pay
for the choices of madmen
that they cannot escape.
.
We are all bound by our choices,
we are trapped by our birth,
and it is up to us to make Heaven
out of this Hell on Earth.
.
Revere not the wise man,
he is just a fool,
who learned of making choices
and you can make them, too.
.
Just listen to the voice
that lives inside of you,
it’s quiet in the daylight,
but at night it’s calling you.
.
To look into your soul
and face the demons there,
to fight them and defeat them,
this life was never fair.
.
It’s always been a battle,
it’s always been a war,
that comes here to destroy us,
but that’s what
choices
are for.
.
Free will in the trigger
for the weapon of your heart.
your mind is just the gunsight
so, aim it high and far.
.
If you’re down at the bottom
of a mountain white with snow,
then raise your eyes
and go.
The choice is always yours.
.
