I have not failed, I just found 10,000 ways to not succeed.

All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream.


I pledge allegiance to this generation
That will lead the fight for change
And to the people whom which we stand for
One generation, unified, will stand tall
For equality and justice for all.

I pledge allegiance to this generation
That is being liberated from the social norm
No longer will we be known as the outcasts
No longer will we be known as the radicals
But rather be the leaders of tomorrow.

I pledge allegiance to this generation
That breaks the boundary between man and women
That doesn’t bound them to stereotypes
That accepts the fact that love is love
That says we are human, free to choose what we dream to be.

I pledge allegiance to this generation
That will lead the libertarian of this nation
From discrimination of all the races
And from which we face each other
With love and acceptance
No matter our race
Or gender
Or sexuality
Or nationality
Or religion
Or our decision
For what we want to be
Because we are human
And we will make change
With liberty and justice for all.
