The Answer

Face the pain,
Rise up and see gain,
Call on His majesty's name.
Our heavenly Father
Will never forsake us,
In God we trust,
His angels amongst us.
We need to focus,
Discard silly notions,
Reject poisonous potions.
Keep it real,
Tighten up our skills,
Don't quit until;
Life has changed,
Time to re-arrange.
Stop being a clown,
The future is now.
Open up your eyes,
Take off the disguise,
Cease telling lies.
Become a better person,
Or your situation will worsen.
Lift your head from the sand, 
Develop a major plan,
Stand up and show the land,
You're a real renaissance man(woman)!

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested.
