There has never been a better time,
To talk about this.
I have never thought it was a good idea,
To study to become a foot soldier.
I studied to take humankind farther,
To space and beyond the small life on Earth.
I am who I am,
And never be anything else.
I am not a Lion. I am not an Ant.
I dare not care for killing.
Or savagery.
I want everyone to live.
And with peace,
In their hearts, their souls.
I am the one,
The Eyes,
Ears,
Nose,
The mouth and tongue of the free world.
I am of Peace.
And I will stand behind my stance.
Until all of us know everything.
