We callin’ for a tribe
Makin' moves we can imbibe

Of those who took that shot
recognized opportunity
when it knocked

Of those who drifted apart from the known
to make a bold start, fear in every bone
makers of change
that’s who they wanted to be
a better world is all they could see

So they started on an audacious path
with an unknown aftermath

The high was the highest ever
like that adrenaline shot Lance watched over
You remember?
straight to the heart, Mia sat upright
that’s when they knew they were in the realest fight

The low, though
dropped them way below
what they knew to be real, to be the darkest possible
turned darker and deeper, their thoughts played the sinner
no confession, no Hail Mary did them any better
it took them to places so painfully painful
left them surprised they had worth in this world still

Tried to pull themselves through
make themselves believe that “You can do it Too”

Sometimes they resisted, mostly IT persisted
that see-saw of self belief and self doubt?
that’s all it was about  

You see, they had to make a choice
to realize that
to be the Lord of the Flies
they gotta look deep inside
find the self that they believe in
the one they weren't seein’
the one’d they’d maimed, looked at in disdain
lathered up in shame, decided was in vain

Hey you. Yes you.
That “they” can include you too
That “they” isn’t the “other”
there is no Room of Requirement
there is plenty room for me and you
sign out of that pity party, that is no argument
stop stalling any longer

Call

to

greatness
