I am not who you think
I wear smiles where pain sleeps
And dreams where doubts once lived
Some want pools in their homes
While those who have 'em barely touch the water
Some cry for love they've never known
While others throw away hearts like clutter
Some starve for one warm meal
While the full plate gets picked at
Like it ain't real
The man who walks dreams of wheels
But the driver only dreams of something new to feel
Isn't it strange?
This game of always reaching
Never seeing what's already in range
Be grateful
Your now is someone's dream
Your enough is someone's gold
The love you hold
Is someone's forever untold
So open your eyes—
And see what you own
Before it's gone
Some mourn the ones they've lost
While others hold them close and still find faults
Some lie alone each night
While some in love still start a fight
The hungry soul would bless a crust
While the blessed soul complains too much
And the dreamer's gaze stays on the sky
While the one in flight forgets to fly
Perspective is power
Gratitude is grace
What you dismiss now
May one day be replaced
By nothing
Be grateful
Your now is someone's dream
Your enough is someone's gold
The love you hold
Is someone's forever untold
So open your eyes
And see what you own
Before it's gone
I am not who you think
I've lived both sides
And all I've learned
Is to love what's mine
