Gratitude
In life, when it rains it pours,
but the responsibility is only yours.
To change your own attitude,
to one of love, peace, and gratitude.
During tough times,
that's the hardest way to be.
But to be truly happy,
it is absolutely key.
Live the life you love.
Love the life you live.
Release yourself from the past,
and learn to forgive.
Focus on what good you have,
and forget the rest.
Because what you put your mind to,
is what you manifest.
We try to make sense,
of our own anxiety.
But what we need to realize,
is that it's from society.
We're held down and abused,
lied to and confused.
We don't know our own past,
because history's a lie.
So how can we shape our future,
and truly learn to fly?
Break out of mind control,
of media and conditioning.
Wake up your true self,
and start really listening.
Your higher self will come through you,
your eternal personal Guru.
Through the cloud of thoughts it whispers,
so listen carefully.
Because your heart will always tell you,
who you're truly meant to be.
