A Little further down the right road

by Jonathan Kraft

What you feel in your heart,
is more important than your head.
What you write is more important,
than what you’ve read.

When you feel the beat,
of the heart inside your soul,
you can achieve any important dreams or goals.
The feeling you get,
when you know your true self,
is the feeling of a heart,
unaffected by wealth.

One that has peace,
or a better people in mind,
is one who is great,
because of a heart that is kind.

What you feel in your heart,
is more important than your head.
What you say is more important,
than what you’ve said.
You must strive for this goal,
each and every day;
to say what you believe,
instead of believing what you say.

What you feel in your heart,
is more important that your head.
What you do when you’re alive,
will determine how you’re dead.
You have a choice now,
to live in wealth and fame,
and even when you mess up,
to never take the blame.

To live your life here,
you can choose to take three roads.
The first is to be purely selfish which will land you in a hell-hole.
The second is to give up and forget about your life,
which will cause you to find your self in much strife.
The third however, the third, is a harder road to take.
It has many bumps, and is not nearly as straight.
You will have to sacrifice
some of your own wealth,
but in the long run,
you will have better health.
You will go to a place called heaven
where all is good and pure,
and although there will be decisions to make,
you know you can be sure,
that if you do what is right
before you get to there,
you will find a place that is good.
You will find a place where
all your dreams will come true for you,
whatever you need will be yours.
It’s a place where people can be who they truly are,
and it’s a place without wars.

What you feel in your heart,
is more important than your head.
Choose the road you know is right,
and you’ll find that in the end;
You’ll be greater than you ever imagined.
Your dreams will be fulfilled,
and all that you’ve ever wanted
in high hopes and good-willed,
will come to you from above,
a little further down the right road,
you’ll find your dreams in a package,
and this package will lighten your load.
It will give you a rest on the road,
should you ever grow tired.
It’s a place where you can tell your dreams,
and they will be admired.

Find your life in your dreams,
find your dreams in your hope,
find the good things in your life,
and always travel down the right road.
