Child of Dust

Child of dust Stared in the mirror for her worries to disappear But that was impossible for her troubles were near Child of dust don’t depart on this dreadful art You must fight for your place in this path Child of dust don’t be blown away Like wind in the air... Stay strong and act on this art of life Paint your own phrase Let your world be known How you got back home Were the blankets are so warm Tell your story, tell your says Child of dust don’t run away Face your fears, for they’re your past And create your future on this broken ark... Stand up and clean your dirt For time has taken its torn You are more than that of what they think of... Remember the times you cried Now let your tears be heard Child of dust you’re a golden star Don’t let them bring you down For you have walked the darkest paths in this life And felt the bitterness of their says down your toes ‘‘Saying you can’t’’ ‘‘Saying you won’t’’ ‘‘saying you will never’’ But now that you found your way out Embrace it for last.
