Trust and Believe

I’m tired of the mockery the media has made of our dreams

It seems we’ve been conditioned to disbelieve

Apathy is the new black and its killing our community

Opening dark doors that lead to ignorance, hate and constant anxiety

Placing the future on a fearful fearful loop

Trusting in fallacies instead of focusing on the Truth

Fortunately this is a mentality that we can undo

No longer will we be the superficial, fearful beings that we’ve been reduced to

Instead we could choose to perceive things in a new light

A light that ignites passion for the person, the people we could be if we tried

The truth is resolutions don’t work because we don’t trust ourselves enough to seem them through

Fear and doubt lead to rational lies which means excuse after excuse

Blaming literally everyone and everything accept the one responsible

That person being You

Though I know accepting responsibility for your reality can be a hard thing to do

But when you see the light, it becomes your guide and strength

Turning the wall you’re pressed against into a flimsy fence

When you realize the power lies inside I can totally guarantee

You can and will become the kings and queens you were meant to be

All you must do is trust and believe in YOU in 2017
