I Believe

I believe I can make a difference
Why? Because I've learned to change my ways
I've stopped fretting about my aliments
And started living in the moment, each day

I've stopped fixating on my trivial issues
I’ve started planting positive seeds
My life belongs to the community
You'll have to excuse me if I cull a few weeds

I want to burn a candle at both ends
Therefore, I start my work before daylight
What an honor it is to help those in need
I believe that's my purpose in life

It's the great irony of living
The more I give the more I receive
To serve with no agenda
That's what I believe
