Today

Tomorrow is the day we don’t know. 

Yesterday was the day we can’t fix. 

But what is today? 

 

Today is the future of yesterday. 

Today is the day we break free. 

Today is the day we do everything we promised ourselves we’d do. 

 

Today is the feeling of braving the world one step at a time, 

forgetting yesterday and ignoring tomorrow.

 

When we live, we will never forget about the past 

or stop thinking about the future. 

 

But today, today is the day we live. 

Today is the day of opportunities and a day we can finally save.

    I know the mountains were not formed by him

    Instead it is the science in the world

    The reason we are here in this moment
