I have long travelled through time and space...
long been fascinated by the human race.
For millennia I have been alive;
immortal - not some hazy cosmic jive.
Now my celestial journeys
are coming to an end,
so I have a final message
that I would like to send;
a message I wish to plant
in every human's mind,
and the message is real simple:
Just be kind.
It's such an easy message,
it should not blow your minds.
Your potential will be reached
if you will just be kind.
You have the moral compass,
have knowledge and are well-versed.
You are always at your best
when things are at their worst.
Learn this lesson well
and in your hearts you'll find
that any problem can be overcome
if you will just be kind.
You are always at your best
when things are at their worst,
but all problems are overcome
if you put each other first.
I have travelled through time and space,
through light years, many miles,
to tell you not to blow it
'cause I think it's all worthwhile.
I tell you not to blow it
'cause I know it's all worthwhile.
Love is when you care
for someone more than you.
Learn to love each other
and know I love you too.
Please learn my message;
pass it on and you'll find
your world will be so much better
if you will just be kind.
