    Written on tablets. We are people blessed and free. Beyond the stars, lights are shinning down on you my brother. Put on your wings, greatness is in your genes. Sweet bird of blackness, it is your time, to take that mantle of power in that voice and words and let it reverberate across this world. You are a power house. Keep singing.

    If you're reading this, I have a message for you. We don't know each other, but I know a little something about you. I know that you are a beautiful, deeply caring, deeply feeling person. I know that you are important to so many others, and that your presence on this Earth is a gift to everyone who knows you. I know that you are a good and moral person, who tries their hardest to do what is right, who cares deeply for others, and who sometimes is hurt because others don't always realize that you feel so deeply. I know you are valuable beyond measure, and thay nothing could ever replace you. Please, I need you to know these things about yourself too. So take a minute to square your shoulders, unclench your jaw, hold your head up a little higher, and recognize how incredible you are ❤️

    How does it feel when it's quiet and calm?
    And will I be denied?
    How will it feel when it's time to move on?
    Mother says kneel and pray
    When it gets hard, I will roll those sleeves
    Life can be so unkind
    I will be found on the edge of the world
    Where there'll be no one around
    Oh, solid ground
    Solid ground
    Solid ground
    Solid ground
    How does it feel to be on your own?
    No one to understand
    I know I'm here and I don't belong
    I'm on my knees today
    When it gets dark, I will know no fear
    Life can be so unkind
    Hanging around on the edge of the world
    Finally no one around
    Oh, would you help me?
    I don't understand
    Is it over?
    Am I losing solid ground?
    Solid ground
    Solid ground
    Solid ground
    Solid ground
    Solid ground
    Solid ground
    Solid ground
    Solid ground
