Ideas cannot die.
Step by step towards my goal,
I gain momentum as I roll,
To the place I want to be,
Just keep watching, soon you'll see.

Things fall slowly into place,
For negative thoughts I have no space,
Positivity controls my dreams,
And holds me together at my seams.

In life there must be all but hate,
Without that burden, I feel great.
To this world I send my love,
Sent through me from far above.

I am no longer lost in sleep,
Although my dreams I choose to keep.
Day by day my talents show,
And wisdom in me starts to grow.

As this world begins to burn,
I have to help the people learn,
Just what started this fatal fire,
And made our race's plight so dire.

I know the facts but still unsure,
How to spread the words to cure.
I want the truth to explode out,
And echo forever when I shout.

Too many are so blind inside,
What they see, they just abide.
I pray they soon will think like me,
And yearn for what we all could be.

But those who truly hear my call,
Will stand by me until I fall.
When that day comes, they will know,
That pure intentions have to grow.

Because ideas cannot die,
Only grow to touch the sky,
Even when my body's gone,
My momentum carries on.
