you are more than you pretend to be
you are more than what most eyes can see
you are more than all your history
look inside and you will find
there's more glory in your mind
come to be the kind of person you would be
you are more than what your leaders say
you are more than how you earn your pay
you are more than what you seem today
so drop that loser's mask
you're equal to the task
the question you should ask is who you are
you are more than what the preachers shout
you are more, come let your spirit out
you are more, your soul should have no doubt
arise, become awake
with every breath you take
you are more than cell and blood and bone
you are more than just your name alone
you are more than all you may own
look around you everywhere
there is something we all share
you are more than some statistic chart
you are more than the sum of all your parts
you are more inside your heart of hearts
you know that this is true
this being that is you
has miracles to do
Excerpted from A Passion for the Possible by Jean Houston
