We put ourselves through so much unnecessary pain.
We question, "will it rain"?
We wonder, "what is our gain"?
What will we have when it is all taken away?
Who you are today, is who you will be tomorrow if you do not pursue a change.
Close your eyes and tell yourself what you see.
If you lie, then you're missing out on what you can be.
The promise was not that our opportunity would come without pain
The promise instead was that the cities we build would not be in vain.
When you doubt your power
You're building a tower and walls that surround you and your lonely city.
Know you are not alone in your doubt, but rather seek and figure out
How you can live with and without.
That stranger you see every time you cross that ghetto street
No shoes on his feet but his heart continues to beat
So sing your doubts to sleep.
There is no rest for people who live with defeat.
Forgive yourself and forget your pain.
It is okay to run out the other way
As long as you are running with open arms and an open heart
Into a world filled with art
Turn your sorrow into song
Turn your pain into praise
Listen to a different tune and your heart will sing a different song
One that says it is okay to be wrong
It is okay to be wrong.
There is a beautiful future and purpose waiting for you,
And there is nothing that you have done or could ever do
that makes you less deserving of what was meant for you.
Each star in the sky is alive for us to explore.
Each letter, each number is meant for us to question more.
Doubt has the potential to lead us into the depths of discovery.
Doubt doesn't want you to doubt.
It wants you to figure out what you're going to do about the things you cannot see, and the things you do not know.
Oh, how beautiful is our world without fear
Oh how happy is an honest soul
Doubt is the reason we hesitate to speak our minds.
It makes us wonder how much truth can we say and still be kind?
Imagine the world where we could all understand everything instantly
How boring it would be to live for infinity
Look into your heart and close your eyes
Tell yourself exactly what you find
Do you want to be kinder?
Do you want to be softer?
Do you want it bad enough that you will lay down your pride and fear and doubt?
You will never get to where you want to go
If you spend time putting on a show
that you hate
Oh how you hate that your never create
You are only molded and sculpted until check. mate.
Doubt
It has the power to bring truth
It has the power to bring pain
What you do with it and how you find your way
Will change the path that we walk today
Will change the path that does lay
Under stars forever waiting for you
Waiting for you to doubt your doubt.
