Sons Arise

Sons of this nation,  from as far as east and west,
Stand tall with pride  because you are simply the best.
Sons  of this great nation from  as far as north and south,
Arise with purpose and with  positivity out of your mouth.
Speak of  your plans to work hard today to reap success tomorrow,
Never lose that spark in your eyes  or be burdened with great sorrow.
You were born to be great and to be a true champion,
Arise sons everywhere to be the fathers of this great nation.
Let your gifts and talents be your guide to greatness,
Take control of your destiny and create your own happiness.
Plan to be leaders of this great nation and take your place,
Be bold and strong even when your darkest hour you may face.
Life  will not always  be easy but let determination be your guide,
Never be afraid to show weakness  neither from your past hide.
The men that you will be  years from now should not be left to chance,
Build yourselves up now as men of great worth that all can see at a glance.
Grow with pride and respect for  everyone that you meet,
And no matter what  you may face on your journey, never admit defeat.
You will meet others along the way that will  try to lead you astray,
But never forget that the choice will be yours and how strong you are today.
There will be glitter and glamour and things that seem too good to be true,
Never forget your past and the goals  that you have set out to achieve too.
Learn the difference between what is right and things that are so wrong,
Stand up for yourselves and never show fear , always be strong.
Know yourselves  and what you are about and  always open your eyes,
 Sons of this great nation get ready to walk into your greatness and arise!
