"Happiness"

Everyone deserves love
To spread their wings n fly
No matter your ethnicity
To all this should apply
As should freedom of speech
And to be free
Letting nothing hold us back
To be what each of us was destined to be

We all travel different paths
But seek peace within ourselves
Realizing if we falter
We still have a chance to make things right
Even if we have fell
Blazing trails!
Making new memories n ascending to new heights
That can one day make a difference
Changing how we all may view life

Finding that balance that centers your talents
Never wavering in your confidence n standing up to any challenge
Pushing forward with good intentions without any malice
Entranced in happiness
Eyeing the world's beauty
Listening to calming voices that exude thee
Like notes from a sax in tune with da sky 
Standing firm on your beliefs even it means you have to die
Being strong n laughing in the face of adversity
When you may want to give up n cry

It is in that moment you smile
Being grateful for what you have 
Trying to stay positive around the vile
No one or nothing is perfect
And my words may cut like a surgeon but is meant to defy odds 
Even in lines to hit minds with a surplus of purpose 

I'm a writer's writer with a slew of nocturnal diverse's
Eye see what most don't n look beneath, instead of what's just on the surface
Universal as one but cerebral is divergent
Bringing light to the truth of dark proof's
Regardless of outer slides
Happiness inside is the only key to unlocking one's own demise
