Be
Neil P Maharaj 1988 (BC)
Be you,
Be true,
Not blind,
The grind,
Stay strong,
For long,
Don’t sweat,
The threat,
Mind clear,
No fear,
Keep hope,
Up slope,
Adapt,
Not trapped,
Endure,
The cure,
To fly,
Your sky,
No hurt,
In dirt,
One heart,
The start,
Beware,
And care,
Your choice,
One voice,
Don’t hate,
Your fate,
Be real,
And feel,
The pain,
The rain,
Live life,
No strife,
Your all,
Stand tall,
And dance,
A trance,
God speed,
No greed,
Forgive,
Outlive,
Your end,
Transcend.
