The Statue of Liberty


Everything built up, bottled up.

Feeling like there’s no way out.

Needing to be set free

To show your true potential.

You just need a chance to begin again

Like the Statue of Liberty showed thousands.

Don’t be afraid to go on a new adventure.

Keep the hope burning inside

Like thousands of immigrants looking for Liberty

And the torch shining as bright as the sun.

Gamble on your future,

Forget about your past.

Take risks and don’t look back.

Go and be free

Like the Statue of Liberty.
