Inner Peace
I’ve been begging for a peaceful world
But it seemed like no one was listening to my words
I’ve been thinking so much that sometimes I’d stop on the sidewalk
I had ideas to share but I guess nobody was ready to talk
I’ve been telling my friends how to do good
But they told me “hey look, we’re not in a mood”
I’ve been walking around spreading good thoughts
But all they had to say was “it’s not our fault”
I’ve been looking for people who would finally listen
But I kept hearing “hey, we’re only citizens”
So, I’ve been thinking “that’s a shame then…
Cause I thought we were humans”
I’ve been crying over my fail to convince others
Until I realized to make peace you don’t need any partners
I’ve been giving free smiles
And suddenly I felt like I was earning more miles
I’ve been expressing more gratitude
And in result, I got rid of all my incertitude
I’ve been loving harder
And it made me feel stronger
I’ve been judging less and forgiving more
Now I ain’t living with an inch of anger no more
I’ve been telling myself that if I can’t help anyone
At least, I’ll make sure I’ll hurt no one
I’ve been keeping myself away from negativity
And I entered this place they call serenity
I’ve been forgiving myself for not saving the world from hunger
I’ve been living my life knowing that I won’t stop people from killing each other
I’ve been laughing, loving, giving, sharing, eating, sleeping because HELL, these are my powers and just so you know, peace starts in the inner.
