God blessed the soul that gave me the courage To write what I feel To feel God blessed the soul that paved a way For people like me For the woman who taught That there is no one like me God blessed the soul that opened the minds Of more than can count The soul that opened the eyes Of the blind who felt But could not see the way To this world This world of emotion passion feel God blessed the soul that paved the way God named her Maya Angelou And she paved the way

Rest in Paradise
God blessed the soul that gave me the courage To write what I feel To feel God blessed the soul that paved a way For people like me For the woman who taught That there is no one like me God blessed the soul that opened the minds Of more than can count The soul that opened the eyes Of the blind who felt But could not see the way To this world This world of emotion passion feel God blessed the soul that paved the way God named her Maya Angelou And she paved the way
Rest in paradise, Ms. Maya Angelou. You gave hope with your words, and I can only try to do the same as well as you one day.
