I strive 'to be” better than me. I grow 'to be” stronger than the trees. I would love 'to be” taken more seriously. I fight 'to be” the one who turns the key to open and true honesty. I want 'to be” the guarantee that we can see a way to be free. I live 'to be” the synergy so that I can feel Mother Earth's rhapsody. I rise 'to be” the remedy of social inequality but first, would someone please, please relieve these pains in my knees.
