These hands were meat for more then just fighting--JAZZ HANDS
Why I need to do this
Cause nobody else will
What you want me to do- just roll over and play dead
You can't keep people back who refuse to be kept back
Writing is a weapon and it's more powerfull then a fist could ever be
It's nice to have friends

If a person has a dirty glass of water and thinks it's good, the best way to convince him to get rid of that water is to show him a clean glass of water.(You think you're healthy I'll show you what super healthy looks like) Don't condemn, is the message, just show the best example.I am determined not only to show, but to be the best example.I have the opportunity to use my talents.I will use those talents for the betterment of the American and all people.
