If you can keep your faith
When the church is using it for their agenda
If you can love deeply
Without losing yourself in another
If you can appreciate differences
And not doubt your own uniqueness
If you can stand firm in your ethics
While nobody else understands the meaning of value
If you can believe you are important in this world
And not brag about your talent
If friends matter
But their opinions don’t rule you
If you have a plan
But the end doesn’t scare you

Then every moment will matter,
You will be the envy of the world
