This world, earth
From the land to the sea
Dancing lights of culture
Memories of hope
We are one, as a family
We have enemies
who we feel hatred towards
We have ones we love,
people who guide
us on this journey,
and people who follow
Our bodies are rockets,
shooting for the stars above
Always trying to go
further than what we are
capable of doing
This is life
We are in control
The clock of the universe
ticks away
What does this time hold
for us?
Once a second passes,
it's gone, forever,
but lives in our mind,
as well as our hearts
Let's make this time ours
Let's make this time our future's
Let us create a beautiful
and extraordinary explosion
of colors, light, courage, love,
and write a song of this
synchronized phenomenon
Then we will dance,
and stare with awe
at the colors in the sky,
a canvas of everlasting
possibilites
Those possibilities are stars,
waiting there, silent and still,
for us to reach up
and be somebody extraordinary,
on the quest for greatness
The stars in the sky were put
there for a reason,
to inspire us,
and reach that state of mind
of perfect serenity
The state of mind that
brings us hope and love,
Diminishing hatred and war
So lets set off the fuse
on this explosion, and let
the flaws of the world heal themselves,
with nations together, as one,
gazing upon the stars,
We are capable
Nothing is impossible
With the lights guiding the way
With unconditional love
towards each other
The stars are there
Just stand on your tiptoes,
push yourself to the limit,
taking flight
And we, as one world,
will be infinite
