Our deepest fear is not...
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.
Your playing small doesn't serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It is not in just some of us; it is in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine,
we unconsciously give people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.

"Patiently taking all day waiting for the confrontations to cease
and the nations to do as we've done
replacement killers LOVE a good fight
a goodnight kiss takes the queen but protects the king's life
while worldwide peace is just a figment and now is where we're livin'
we can hold on to the vision, do our ancestors right
by our decisions, thanks givin' to the most
for the host of believers and this ghetto child's acheivements
to all the berevements we are...."
