use it wisely


Your life is not in vain

You do not live to die

You are not dead men walking

You are alive

You are living

You may not make a difference

You may only change one life

You may change your own

You have power

You have thoughts

You may not become famous

You may not be well known

You might only have a cult following

You have words

You have ideas

HOWEVER

You may become well known

But only because youve killed

You may have a large following

But only because they hurt

You have power

Use it wisely
