The Will That Drives

I do not ask for glory,
I do not ask for fame,
I do not want to be remembered,
All I want is change.

Change that will not falter,
Change that will remain,
Change that helps the world to see,
All who've died in vain. 

Death is not the end,
Death is not is not the start,
Death is just continuation,
Our soul survives our heart.

The heart is just an organ,
The heart is a formality,
The heart does not control each man,
Each man controls humanity.
