I look at my food, my food looks at me;
Sometimes I swear it really talks to me.
I stare and I stare as I soak in its smell;
I glare and I glare, knowing it’s done well.
I enjoy every bite, every single night;
I indulge my soul with the food of life.
Age is just a number,
Beauty is just genes,
Love is just chemistry,
Sadness is just a tear,
Money is just paper,
Fame is just success,
Knowledge is just power,
Religion is just faith,
Homophobia is just fear,
Racism is just hate,
Life is just a moment,
Death is just the end.
I will not live in fear,
I will not watch how people
shed another tear;
I will not give into death,
I will take another step
and a deep breath.
I will not kill to feel,
I will not use force to justify
my religious belief;
I will not give upon peace,
I will pray to seek truth
and to find grace.

Turning the pages,
witnessing how fast life changes;
One cannot control what stays or fades,
there are too many fakes…
But what am I left with when I empty my coat?
A pocket full of broken dreams,
and a bleeding heart with which I can mourn;
I have to dust off my two suitcases soon,
get on a plane and fly over the moon…
So where do I go from there?
Happiness is not about building castles in the air;
Even if the walls could talk,
they’d be whispering to deaf ears…
Time for the past to die, I won’t shed another tear.
I will leave it all behind,
I’m one of a kind with goals on my mind.
Time to evolve.
Thank you for being kind,
Thank you for being one of a kind.
Thank you for being honest,
Thank you for being really modest.
Thank you for being diligent,
Thank you for keeping me confident.
Thank you for being my man,
Thank you for holding my hand.
Thank you for understanding
when my little heart is demanding.
