And if I say to you tomorrow,
Take a walk through all you’ve seen.
It’s not a castle we have lived in,
And you may never be a queen.
Take a walk through all you’ve seen.
It’s not a castle we have lived in,
And you may never be a queen.
Death eroded your foundation.
Friends and grown ups let you down.
Slapped with the ugly side of humans,
You see a hole where there is ground.
You were too young to learn these lessons,
And in your soul you held the blame.
And dined on to anger for protection,
You fear you’ll never be the same.
But it’s a new year we’re approaching!
Take my hand child come with me.
There is purpose that awaits you
And it’s the life where you will be...
Whatever you choose for your heart’s passion.
I look at you and see the sun.
The world is yours to change and shine on,
Your precious life has just begun.
Catch the wind an let it take you
To a place where you realize
That the past belongs behind you
And like the sun, you too will rise.
And when you wake up with the sunrise
Miles from all you loved and feared.
Without a castle or a crown,
I’m always proud, you persevered.
Because from the ashes we learn lessons,
And from pain, empathy will grow
And from your empathy, you’ll help others.
You’re going change the world, we know.
