Dream whats better

Rivers of tears stream through the friendly darkness,

the closed closet door muffles the cries of pain,

A couple slits might make some light in life's blackness,

and the stinging sensation might be a gain,

but it gets better,

Nelson Mandela could have said Apartheid will always win,

Years strolling by might have stolen some of his dream,

yet he lived by not judging someone by the color of their skin,

and he showed South Africa does need to be where its always been,

because it gets better,

MLK could have said racist policies are too strong,

and his dream would have been cut down by hate,

but that dream started walking before long,

and changed the democratic fabric of these United States,

because it gets better

Simon Boliviar, Ghandi, George Washington stood tall,

all held dreams above the daily tolls of revolution,

to ensure that oppression and tyrants would on day fall,

They helped create social evolution

because it gets better,

So the next time you think you will never leave a mark,

The chorus of you suck, you're not good enough becomes loud,

Just remember that to see the light you must walk through the dark,

and the greatest rebellion you can do is hold your head up and be proud,

because it always gets better.
