Broken

I heard a phrase 
Broken Crayons 
Still Color 
So I take a shade of blue 
And sprinkle it on a better version of me 
You see 
If a crayon still breaks 
It can still create a master piece 
Each line 
Is filled in 
Where do I begin 
A broken ?? piece 
Can be put back together 
It may require some work 
To move pass the triumphs to get pass the hurt 
The crayons still create beauty 
From different shades 
That are being displayed 
Broken Hearts 
Still mend
Broken friendships 
Can be fixed 
Broken records 
Can be remixed 
Broken vessels 
Can be repumped 
Broken  love 
Can be unbroken 
Generational curses 
Can be changed
Mindsets can't be blamed 
It's time for a change 
Don't stay the same 
Just grow 
It's your season 
Time to show 
Show the world 
Who's been waiting 
With your dreams 
Continue to chase them 
With regrets 
Don't keep having them 
You are amazing and extragravant
Above all
When the name greatest 
Your name is called 
Take the crayons 
Make a mural
You are amazing
That's for sure
You are the cure 
To a cureless situation
You are a healing for a nation who need help 
You are the awareness to a world that has kept 
Kept falling 
Live in your purpose 
The Lord is calling 
For you to be all you can be   
 Be Great , we all can relate
This is true 
Be the best color , be you 
Paint the picture 
Doesn't mean the picture is perfect 
But in the end it will all be worth it
