Among The Crowds

People all around me
Everything to lose
My being is not free
My soul is confused

Forever will I be stuck wasting away
Always thinking that to them I am not worth a single day

But day by day the Heavens whisper back to my cries
That giving up is not the option when I am meant to fly

I keep on smiling
And lend a hand
I keep on walking
And know when to stand

For this life was not meant to be wasted on fears
It was meant for hard work and sometimes a few tears

Again and again I will praise the Heavens for giving me life
A life that has so much meaning amongst all strife

Every day we fail to see that we have great potential because we worry about authority figures or being up to par with another person. What is necessary for us to be successful is to have faith in ourselves.
