I chose life, and left you behind,

There is more to life, than just us,

I looked at the sky and gained hope.

No one is too special, nor too similar,

Everyone is unique,

With just enough unlikeness within.

I chose life, and held it by the hand,

I embraced my present, happily,

I accepted the flaws that make me,

I welcomed those that understood,

Everyone is unique,

With just enough unlikeness within.

I chose life, and out poured the love,

I became empowered to take charge,

To be more than words can convey,

To live without any restraint,

Everyone is unique,

With just enough unlikeness within.
