Human
If you speak the same to prince or pauper every time,
Honor will walk beside
If you walk with dignity even when life is disgraced and your burdens are too great,
Strength will be your mate
If you give your all even when you think you'll fall,
Greatness is your call
If you are humble enough to think you are small but never kneel to a mighty man's calls,
Slavery's walls will fall
If you love with no fear and let yourself experience tears,
Regret will never mark the mirror
If you can have and lose without becoming bitter,
Freedom will be in your eyes
If you look up, see the stars and wonder who you are,
Curiosity will take you far
If you've seen the slave and carried all he gave,
You've seen a better way
If you walked away from power because it didn't set right in your bones,
The time comes for you to lead
If money never held your eye because the value never matched inside,
Wisdom will have its day
If you fight when you've been beat too many times,
Your spirit never dies
If you do not bow when authority becomes tyranny,
Revolution is set to rise
If you've slept in the dirt and brushed it away the next day with no shame,
Nothing stands in your way
If these are things you crave and they are your way,
Humanity will step from the fray
