If you believe


in every hero
you saw yourself, Rambo,
Van Dame, Beastmaster,
Schwarzenegger, Texas Ranger
and the hustler in a ghetto
who believed in a brighter tomorrow

why have you let a few tears
you’ve shed over the years
dampen your belief in yourself
and steal the joy in goals you’ve set?
give ignition
once again, to your ambitions

autumn is time
for shedding leaves, go ahead and cry
if you must, but let no grim wolf
nor asshole
ever stop you from shining
listen to the inspiration bells within, chiming
