"If You Give a Child a Word" Continued
I just, run back to the time where I was just yay tall
As I watched my mother’s smile

After I became the first one in class to break the wall, Of language.
From then, I was raised to learn the power of a word.
And now, I have the spirit of a million voices in my soul that just wanna be heard
Do you hear me when I say if you give a child a word?
You’re not only nurturing a garden
But, You’re building a world that our youth deserves A world where they can escape to A world where their innovative visions can come true
If you give a child a word
You’ll begin to face the truth
Of why I tell stories how I do
Why I move how I move
And why I love how I love, You
Because I believe in you.
You, you, you, you & you
And out there is someone looking towards you.
Or anybody, that will gracefully extend their hand
To guide them to the ray of light where their destiny patiently stands.
