To ride a horse is to fly without wings


In the darkness 

Being swallowed by it

Sucking the air out of our reach

All this devastation 

The world spiraling out of control

Walls are crumbling

Rocks are falling

But we are not broken

We are not weak

We will rise from the dust

This world may be dying

But we will not let it go like this

We will stand up

We will fight through this

Push away the hate and dust

We will be brave

Holding each others hands

We will be brave enough

Brave enough to reach out and see

See the light

To be the light

Show everyone kindness

Love

And hope

Show them that we care

Tell them, things will get better

If you are brave enough to hold my hand

We can walk towards the light

We can be the light together

Things will get better

They won’t be like they were before

But different

Different isn't always bad

A good different

This may be hard to believe

Right now

But if you try

If you see

If you be the light

Things will get better
