We are on this Earth.
       We are here and now.
         In this tiny pocket of
                      Space.


     We are here and now.
         So small in the picture of
                          Space.
                     But Why?

    So small in the picture
       Why were we painted?
                    Space.
              Can we do any thing to change it?

Why were we painted?
   Are we here to learn?
       But Why?
   Are we here to make a change?
    
  Are we here to learn?
    And if so what?
Are we here to make a change?
    What kind of change are we to make?

And if so what?
If we are made in a higher power's image.
  What kind of change are we to make?
   In infinite time and space.

If we are made in a higher power's image.
  Do we have the power to make change?
   In infinite time and space.
Are we allowed to take our lives in our hands?

Do we have the power to make change?
   We are too small to learn.
Are we allowed to take our lives in hand?
   What is our purpose on this Earth?

We are too small to learn.
  Why do we not question that?
What is our purpose on this Earth?
  Is it just to exist?

Why do we not question?
  When do we begin to learn?
    Is it just to exist?
      But that goes against our very nature.

When do we begin?
  To make or take a life and shape it against the mold.
   That goes against our very nature.
   Why don't we take that chance?

To make or take a life, shape it against the mold.
Is it wrong to be different?
Why don't we take that chance.
  Everything is important.

Is it wrong to be different?
  And hold everything in value.
     Everything is important.
   So why are some things treated as if they were not?

Hold everything in value.
It is why we all are here.
Why are some things treated as if they were not?
     It is our job to right that wrong.

It is why all of us are here.
  To change the world, make it better.
      It is our job to right the wrongs.
       We must take that step.

    We are all here
  In this tiny pocket of
     Life and death.
That is why. We are on this Earth.
