Have You Ever Seen A Flower and Wanted To Cry

Have you ever seen a flower and wanted to cry?
    Fighting for life as it lays on its side?
Beaten and broken, but yet still alive?
    Painfully knowing it hurts deep inside?

All that it wants is to shine in the light,
    Helplessly hoping as people walk by,
Nobody noticing for most of the time,
    Except for the ones who are forced to survive...

"I'll help you my friend, together we'll rise",
    We are the same, both you and I,
Kicked to the dirt, and caught by surprise,
    Beauty beholds the mask of disguise,

Have you ever seen a flower and wanted to cry?
    Patiently waiting to catch someones eye?
Searching for strength to grow and to thrive?
    Praying for Love to reach to the sky?

            We are the same, both you and I,
       Together, we will rise.
