You are not your own
Modern Satire
You are not your own
You are not made for yourself
You were made from tears
You were made from sweat
You were made from the blood
You were made from the heart
You were designed for a purpose
You were created for a reason
And every inch
Every part
Every member of you
Was builted for a reason
For you are the hope
You are the vision
You are the dream of many
Many who were denied
Many who were put down
Many who fought hard
Many who fought long
You were their hope
You were their ambition
You were their goal
So don't think lightly of who you are
Don't think lightly of who you are
Son be strong and capable
Daughter be strong and able
For you are the very dreams of your ancestors
