The World Follows Me

The world follows me
In anticipation
The world watches me
With a broken heart
And were all nervous
For failure may prevail
The world knows what I can do
What I can be
They find hope
In their eyes
In their hearts
Their prayers are limited
Some wish for me to fail
Some wish for me to crawl
But my mind guides
With courage it proceeds
And the world watches


The world follows me
Following,
Watching closely with their eyes
Do they hate me?
Or do they love ever so?
They punish me for my crimes
What do I do?
With so much to prove
I’m willing to save
I want to jump
The world waits
Patiently
Calmly
To see if I fail,
To see if I fall,
If I don’t,
We are all lost
If I do,
We all travel to greater paths;
And the world will be watching
From every direction


The world follows me
My shoulders have become so numb
I’m nervous,
I’m shaky,
For everyone sits upon my arms,
I know the best way
Or so I believe it to be
I could guide the way through
Not stepping on another’s path
Not forcing others to join
But accepting,
And respecting each other’s choices
That is how we trek
That is how we co-exist
This is the message I preach
The message I stand to teach
An as you lay on my shoulders
I’ll give encouragement
To keep your treks;
And the world will be watching
From every direction


The world follows me
Because we are all lost
All neutral in our pursuits
We are stuck in uncertainty,
Cemented in our own doubts
But here up on my back
I’ll take each of you
In all you’re ugliness
In all your beauties
An well follow,
An separate,
An journey,
Where you will follow
Out of the dungeon
And into the light
That’s where the world will be watching,
Waiting,
Ready;
And the world will be watching
From every direction
