In order to hopefully see
With a newfound sense of clarity,
One must be willing to accept
The nature of the human identity,
And by striving to live with authenticity,
People could indelibly impact
The nature of reality,
So listen to the wonder of sound
While looking all around
With the hope of becoming
Finally found,
And lift oneself up
From off the ground
To take a stand
As well as offer
A helping hand,
And contribute to the world as a whole
To reveal the beauty deep within the soul,
And let the heart soar
Like never before
By living with dignity and integrity
With love as boundless as the sea
