DO'S & DONT'S

You do not need fear- to feel more alive
You don't need those friends who make you break up inside
You don't need a gold ring- to affirm your devotion
You don't need a great river- to create a deep ocean

You do not need hate- to make yourself strong
You needn't always be right blaming others is wrong
You don't need to feel pain- to display concern
Overcoming deep loss- becomes a great wisdom earned

Do believe that you're able to realize your dreams
Do look in the mirror and embrace the one you see
Do fall in love, maybe have a child or two
Remember its our children who make us young again too

I don't want to hear "NO"- when I hardly ever hear "yes"
I don't need to hurt others- to get things off my chest
I don't need to hear "CAN'T"- when I know that I can
And I need not fight wars- to claim rule of safe land

Do believe you're able to realize your dreams
Do look in the mirror and embrace the one you see
Do fall deep in love, maybe have a child or two
Remember through our children we become as children do

You don't need to be like the others- you don't need to fit the mould
Stand your ground. Speak your truth with what beliefs that you may hold
Do always walk with pride, let your golden heart shine
Reach out to those who's lives have not seen a world thats kind

You don't have to laugh- and pretend you're never down
You say you feel like a joke and yet you still play the party clown
Never give in to those who may question your faith
Storms may cause destruction but their wind brings change of fate

Do believe you're able to realize your dreams
Do look in the mirror and embrace the person you see
Do fall in love, maybe have a child or two
Remember through children we feel young again too

You don't need to be like the others- you don't need to fit the mould
Stand your ground. Speak your truth with what beliefs you may still hold
Do always walk with pride, let your golden heart shine
Reach out to those who's lives have not seen a world thats kind
