I Dare You


I dare you to be the answer to love,

To be the angels pick from the heavens above.

To show no hate and hide no glove,

I dare you to be the answer to love.

 

I dare you to be a friend to all,

One who catches others when they start to fall.

One to answer every saddened call,

I dare you to be a friend to all.

 

I dare you to open to the world outside,

To show passion for what you feel inside.

To show excitement in the time of pride,

I dare you to open to the world outside.

 

I dare you to speak the truth and nothing but,

To make things right no matter the cut.

To never trap lies inside a falling hut,

I dare you to speak the truth and nothing but.

 

I dare you, lastly to be yourself,

To face the hardest challenge rested on the shelf.

To be the greatest you can be too,

To be yourself, I dare you.
