Because You Can
do not hold back,
do not let a passing thought change your mind.
Do not pause, or whisper, or weaken,
March forward,
if you can sing- sing for everyone to hear,
if you can dance- dance to leave others breathless,
if you can speak- speak to the people,
if you can write- write the truth,
if you can stand- stand for what you believe,
if you can play- play for cause,
if you can laugh- laugh to make others do the same,
if you can live- live so that even a blade of grass will inspire you,
if you can do anything,
do not hold back,
do not let the words of others,
stop, or weaken, or confuse you,
Sing! Dance! Speak! Write! Stand! Play! Laugh! Live!
because you can.
