If you don't like the way the world is, you change it. You have an obligation to change it. You just do it one step at a time. - Marian Wright Edelman

Its like you're my mirror, my mirror staring back at me

Except when I look into your eyes I see pain, hurt & fear

Though the moment we touch, its like all those feelings seem to disappear

Standing in the center of this field and the flowers around me start to bloom

The rainbow paints a picture in the sky

and all I could think about is us spreading our wings to fly

Because when I look at you, I see so much more than what you appear to be

Its like you're my mirror, my mirror staring back at me
