John Scott Poem
As children we'd play,
and nothing could stop our fun or get in our way
We'd play until the day's end,
and black, white, thick or thin didn't matter, if you wanted to play then you were my friend
As children if wasn't out of normality to dream, we dreamed and dreamed
We made our reality into what we wanted, no matter how silly it seemed
With ease we broke through realities tightest seams
We would chase and become our dreams, no matter how hard it seemed
As kids we could not only run, we could also fly,
close our eyes and run, and watch the wind take us high
Who knew by closing our eyes,
we could then touch the skies
As children, in our future we weren't CEO's laid back in a room,
we dreamed one day we'd walk the moon
we didn't read books, we made our own story,
and doing that expanded my mind further than any book every did for me
As children we knew not of fear,
we only knew how to play
Despite the degree of danger, we made sure we would bring our dreams near
that so called fear couldn't get in our way
Before we knew fear,
despite the chance of loss, we held on and loved things so dear
because losing these things isn't an option for a kid, because there wasn't the slightest questioning of if "if it did"
As children we looked danger in the eyes,
and with faith in our hearts we'd touch the skies
But now that we've moved on and grown,
we don't know where this faith in our dreams has gone.......

John Scott Poem
Everything that rises will one day fall,
but as I stand high upon my pedestal I will surely be acknowledged as the greatest of them of them all
My enemy's knees will quiver and shake,
while looking this destined king in his heavenly face
Whenever they wake,
they will enter with respect and loyalty into my self-made kingdom, my sacred place
i will fall to none,
and with all my strength, I'll insure every battle is won
I will bow down to no one but my great God above,
but still respect every earthly man with great Love
I will always stand as a king,
not because you said so, but because of the way I live and the greatness I bring
i must stand as a king today, or fall as a peasant tomorrow,
i must die in a honorable way, surely if i die a peasant, i will die in sorrow
I will rise,
and stare all obstacles within its grueling eyes
I will also one day fall,
but I will fall with high honor and great valor, and always be remembered as the greatest of them all.......
