The Message

There’s a message of love
Oh’ so true
To believe in the things
That you want to do
When you love yourself
And believe in you
You can achieve your goals
And Gods too





There’s nothing in this world
That can hold you down
There are things to study all around
So any skill or trade you need
Just go now and plant the seed
Put all your heart and soul into learning
Be in control and exerting
Your dreams unfold into discerning





Like a root shooting up 
Your experience grows 
Flourishing beautifully
Your life will show
Just be persistent
Determined to fight
Never give up
Your goals in sight





Practice makes perfect 
You’ve heard it said
So learn the basics of what you've read
I’ll think you’ll find 
They go hand in hand
One without the other
Is a fool man’s plan!
