Legacy

Can anyone speak to life

How do I break the cycle

Handed down by my dad

Is there a model

 

It’s the hardest thing to find

I found that in my despair

I clarified my questions

Set my mind to life

 

I knew what I did not want

Can I find another way

Will my children weep like me

Can I give them love

 

I’ve seen despair win

Rob people from being loved

I am determined

To bring light, life and loving

In view of all that I meet

 

The path that I choose 

Will impact generations

I know this is true

 

We all leave a legacy

A life that we will pass on

I will not be uninformed

I’ll engage my mind
