I live on a tiny blue dot This is Earth The place I call home On this blue dot I took my first steps I said my first words I told my first lie I had my first panic attack Not much that I have done has changed anything I can be easily thrown away Nobody would notice I’m nothing of importance Just another being on this blue dot I was born one day like how I will die on another Just like everyone else People tell me I will do great things, They say I can, But how can that be true If it isn’t for anyone else I walk this earth I breathe this air And just like everyone else I’ll die here too I am not special You are not special We are not special Nobody is special But You can change that If you know and believe that you can make the difference The one needed Then you will One way or another But you must prove that you can Or you will go unnoticed as another one of Society’s puppets You need to prove yourself You must show everyone that you are what you want to be If you want to be important Then prove to everyone that you can be Because you will never be anything If You don’t show who you are Don’t follow the crowd Show everyone the person you can be Rather than the person they want you to be The greatness that is inside of you will never be seen If you are as everyone else Otherwise, You are nothing but a mere shadow on the wall Going unnoticed Observing those who show their brilliance Only wishing To be more like them To have the bravery to differentiate from the ordinary However you don’t need courage You just need to know what you want Do you want to stay in the background or Do you want to shine in the spotlight? This is the question that all the great must ask themselves This is the moment where you decide if you want to move forward in life This isn’t a matter of if you can or cannot Because as long as you believe You will achieve anything and everything Regardless of your abilities or disabilities Everyone on this earth has a place Whether you think this or not It’s true Everyone has a spot reserved for them This is what I’d like to call destiny The place where you are supposed to go There isn’t a specific pathway there It’s just a preset goal for you to achieve. So if you believe you are destined to be great Then you are If you don’t Then thats a shame “Seeing is believing” Yeah right If you want to see a good future for yourself Then you need to believe in it Otherwise you won’t see What you want Will never come Show that you are here Find your place Shout at the top of your lungs “I am here!” Because you are on this earth for a reason You must find your spot So, “Where am you in this world?” And “Where do you want to be?”

Where Are You
I live on a tiny blue dot This is Earth The place I call home On this blue dot I took my first steps I said my first words I told my first lie I had my first panic attack Not much that I have done has changed anything I can be easily thrown away Nobody would notice I’m nothing of importance Just another being on this blue dot I was born one day like how I will die on another Just like everyone else People tell me I will do great things, They say I can, But how can that be true If it isn’t for anyone else I walk this earth I breathe this air And just like everyone else I’ll die here too I am not special You are not special We are not special Nobody is special But You can change that If you know and believe that you can make the difference The one needed Then you will One way or another But you must prove that you can Or you will go unnoticed as another one of Society’s puppets You need to prove yourself You must show everyone that you are what you want to be If you want to be important Then prove to everyone that you can be Because you will never be anything If You don’t show who you are Don’t follow the crowd Show everyone the person you can be Rather than the person they want you to be The greatness that is inside of you will never be seen If you are as everyone else Otherwise, You are nothing but a mere shadow on the wall Going unnoticed Observing those who show their brilliance Only wishing To be more like them To have the bravery to differentiate from the ordinary However you don’t need courage You just need to know what you want Do you want to stay in the background or Do you want to shine in the spotlight?
