Inherited Faith
Fallen heroes
unfulfilled dreams.
Hoplessness and
poverty are all
we see.
We need to change,
save the dream,
keep the possibility
alive.
Even if it ends in failure
at least we'll know we
tried.
When did we become so
selfish?
When did we become so
vain?
Why do we judge people
when we don't even know
their names???
It's up to you and I to make
society revolutionize.
We have to help the weak
hold their heads high.
To hold their hands in times
of need,
hug away the pain;
and wipe tears from their eyes
when they're afraid the world
is going insane.
Some say we're too small to make
any change at all,
and crazy to even try,
but we possess the strength,
the desire,
to make the scared feel safe.
Most of all we need to remember
we've inherited our heroes faith.
