From Today Until Tomorrow

From today until tomorrow, years later to forever I want to make an impact that would change the world There are moments when we see the violence coming and no one is in sight to stop it But I am tired of waiting for superman, it’s time to be our own hero I want to be read in a textbook one day I want to be that story on the front page That inspiration for a song That person who is played by an actor in a movie I want to be legendary, not a legend I want to feel powerful, not powerless I want to break barriers but not be broken I want to be fierce but not feared I want to wake up and think that I am still dreaming Right now I’m young but I won’t always be By the time I’ve grown all the way, I hope to see a different side of the world One where the law is not treated like a tool to fix people One where we can be satisfied with a little but still feel like we have a lot Where wealth is shared, poverty is disappearing It takes more than just words to speak It takes more than an army to win a war More than an education to prepare a child And more than love to show we care To be honest, I have absolutely no idea what it takes, and I won’t pretend like I do either But from today until tomorrow, maybe even a few years later to forever Maybe there will be an answer
