I've been looking at the stars lately
And l want to believe that I'm one of them
That l belong with the others
But l don't
If I'm a star that just makes me another one in a million
I want to be different
I want to see things differently than your vision
I don't want my name written in the stars
I want it written in the sand
So that the sea may wash it away
So that l may write it again
Until the earth remembers
I want to know what you don't and what you won't
I don't want the world but l want the substance that created it
So that l may create my own
I don't want your red or your orange or your blue
I want a colour that's never been known
I don't want to look at the sun and think its too bright
I want to know how l too can shine
I don't want to wake up and think about how old I'm becoming
I want to wake up grateful because of the wisdom I'm gettingI just want to be different
~~~~~~~~~~~~~Don't forget to give your feedback guys
Love ya
