Flourish
Go out into the world
knowing that you are good
that you are completely powerful
take what you have
the gift in your soul
and share it with the world
Go out into the world
knowing that you belong
with all people, all colors
take that kindness
from deep within
and share it with everyone
Go out into the world
lead the way
out of despair
listen closely with
your heart
and hear what you have not heard
Go out into the world
with integrity
and the doors will open
where they have once been locked
build a bridge that will keep you
deeply connected with everyone
Go out into the world
remembering who you are
where you came from
forever moving forward
to the dreams
that make your heart dance
Go out into the world
reminding yourself now and then
that you are good and you belong
as life's challenges
will often make you forget
that you are worthy of great success
