You must be the change you wish to see in the world.
—Gandhi


You kept on running even though the kite still had holes
You kept your confidence while I gave up and lost hope
You kept an empty promise that everyone will always hold
You cared for me like if I were a daughter of your own

Six...

Never thought we'd make a fire when our stick's for the first time crossed
Never thought you'd keep the water no mater how much the bowl cost
Never thought you'd pick up my hope from the dirt when it was tossed
Never thought you'd help me find my way back when I was lost

Five...

You changed my workplace that went on in my mind
You changed the way I thought about my not-so-perfect life
You changed that seed to make a new flower when the old one died
You changed my dead eyes to something more alive

Four

You soon were forced to let go of the kite
Leaving the cloth to not support the sticks and the holes from my life
Slowly tumbling down, it's running out of time
The end of all creation the blue thing called a sky

Three...

I wish on a star that you'll come back
Revive my heartbeat with the paddles that you have
That power you hold to stop my present from attack
You stop the rain with that umbrella in your hands

Two...

Rebirth me before I lose

One...
