Pick yourself up
reach for the stars
treat your scars
by reaching for the stars.
Look at the clouds in the sky.
Think on other things
like homelessness and hunger.
Think on things that make you wonder.
Put your mind asunder.
Pick yourself up
reach for the stars
treat your scars
by reaching for the stars.
Wipe the tears from your eyes.
Look at the clouds in the sky
and wonder why
there are people who need clean water to drink.
They don't even have a sink.
Their clothes are worn and tattered.
Their family is scattered
searching for a way to make life better.
Pick yourself up
reach for the stars
treat your scars
by reaching for the stars.
Wipe the tears from their eyes
by treating their thirst and hunger.
Look at the clouds in the sky
and wonder why
you don't hear their cry.
