What I Want
Location
I don't know what I'm going to be or where I'm going to end up or what I'm going to see
I wish I could have all the answers, but I don't, and I never will
I say if I run a little harder, make my stomach a little smaller, make my GPA a little higher
Then life will be better, then I'll be better
But I know the lies that I tell myself will get me no where but self destruction
I've already been there, and I don't want to go back
When I set goals for myself
When I live like I have something worth living for, everything changes
I sit in an urban high school and listen to people scream through the hallways and dispresect teachers like they have nothing to lose
That's not who I want to be.
I want to be successful and happy and free to do what brings so much joy to me
I want to preach the Good News
I want to help people
I want to change the world
I want to serve God, others, and a church
I want to lead people to hope and help them to find a better way
I don't want to be a pastor to change my life
I want to be a pastor to do good for every son and daughter of God and change the lives of everyone around me
