If we all see the world in a different view,
If we all walk in someone else’s shoes,
Will we feel any different?
Will we feel any regret?

What if you saw your parents die,
What if you walk into a world of lies,
Will you feel like the world is against you?
Will you feel like there’s nothing you can do?

Now stand for yourself,
Because no one will give you help,
This is your life to live,
Understand what to believe,

If someone helps you along the way,
Take it, it will lighten load for a day,
But never be dependent for too long,
Show the world you are strong,

You can be a better person,
And all you need is a reason,
To achieve this peace,
It can all start with a simple wish.
