Little Things

Surrounded in our negativity Swallowed up in our captivity Maybe it's the loss of activity We don't see reality We react way to aggressively Without any creativity We no longer see our objectivity We won't change out perceptivity Maybe of we open our eyes And give other things a chance But we go past them without a second glance We're blind to see except want we want to see We don't fully know who to be Everyone needs love to have pride But some people don't see what's already there We just toss it back to the side We don't see the little things Instead concentrate on what we're missing Don't see what truly matters Blinded by our own desires The answer is right in front of you But you just hear the dissing All the names, shouts and hissing Will it ever change Maybe if you do something Your life will re-arrange You don't need to change Your perfect how you are Through all the mistakes, your a shining star You have the power to change how you act Negativity is what's holding you back It's want making you crack It's just the confidence you lack Confidence to take a step forward And step out of the hole Just start climbing Climb up the pole At the top is a prize If you kept going you'll realize That you didn't give up for a reason Not now, not ever, not a another season Because people are waiting Seeing you break They've seen your fall Now they can watch you rise If only we We no longer surrounded on our negativity Or swallowed up in our captivity If we do more activity And we see reality We don't react aggressively We have more creativity We change our prospectivity Something in our minds will ring We finally see the things

Dismissing negativity, we would not be captured, but be what God made us to be!
