Our deepest fear (collaboration w/ King Crayton)
It is our light not our darkness
that most frightens us but
its truly our weakness that most enlightens us
We are brilliant and gorgeous
but its our flaws that stand out
when we make ourselves plain,
that's when our talents really show
and if Gods children were made to shine
like light who are we to change His will
or to say he's not right
Our deepest fear is that
we're powerful beyond measure
but brain over brawn was always man's greatest treasure
As we shine and unconsciously let others do the same we realize our own awareness
surpasses any wealth and fame.
It is not that we are afraid of being impotent
we are just afraid of being preeminent
as we shine we want others to shine as well.
It is our light that leads us to the right path
when we shine, others shine, they may not be the first to shine but everyone must
shine in their own way.
Our deepest fear is of being ourselves,
of showing our true colors. We are afraid
of judgement and criticism. But our
deepest fear will always be that we
are powerful beyond measure.
