There is always hope
no matter how dim the rays of sunshine
hope is ever present
and one must never give it up
Look up
See that stretch of blue sky?
Isn't it beautiful?
That is hope
Place your fist to your chest
Feel that heartbeat?
you are alive
That is hope
Look down at your hands
trace the creases
you are special
That is hope
Now look in the mirror
behind those eye bags from lack of sleep
behind that watery smile
behind all your cuts and bruises
You are you
you are human
you are alive
and you are a catalyst of infinite possibilities
you are hope

There is always hope
no matter how dim the rays of sunshine
hope is ever present
and one must never give it up
Look up
See that stretch of blue sky?
Isn't it beautiful?
That is hope
Place your fist to your chest
Feel that heartbeat?
you are alive
That is hope
Look down at your hands
trace the creases
you are special
That is hope
Now look in the mirror
behind those eye bags from lack of sleep
behind that watery smile
behind all your cuts and bruises
You are you
you are human
you are alive
and you are a catalyst of infinite possibilities
you are hope
No matter what you think of yourself
No matter what people think of you
YOU
yes you
are hope.
