I Want You To Know
For my mother
Who taught me to stand up
Reach for the stars;
I want you to know
I will never give in.
For my father
Who lifts me up when I’m down
Who taught me
How to fly;
I want you to know
I will always try my best.
For my brother
Who lights up my life;
I want you to know
We’ll always be a team.
For my grandparents
Whose stories inspire me
To keep going;
I want you to know
I will always strive to be the best person I can.
For the 7.7 billion people in the world
Who fight and hate and rage
Who love and give and care
Who are human
Through it all;
I want you to know
I’m made stronger by those who hate me
I’m made stronger by those who love me
And I make the world stronger through me.
