This is a poem I wrote one day of how I would run my presidency if I were actually President.

A few months ago, I had a dream of becoming President

I would like to make a difference, to say I cannot is irrevelant

I ask myself, why? when I zero knowledge of politics

because I see a difference needs to happen before we’re no longer in His providence

I’ve probably spent, too many hours watching CNN

for me to doubt that we as a people cannot get out of this backwards spin we’re in

I walk outside, wherever I go, seems places are filled with sin

then I thought, well, maybe someone just needs to dream again

like Dr. King did, and someday, a change will come

he may have lost the battle, but in the end the war was won

It’s a shame he lost his life, but us winning was the outcome

he could’ve said, “I’m through, done” but change, we’d be without none

so, what I’ve learned is that, if you want anything, for it, you must fight

especially when all is wrong and you’re trying to make it right

It’s like, if it’s darkness around you, then you should be the light

be the clear skies when it’s cloudy, the daylight in the night

I’m not pleased with this world for what it has became

taking God out of schools says, we’re spiritually insane

so mundane, are the people’s thoughts, we really need a change

a fire of desire and a spark to ignite the flame

If I were President-we’d praise God, not man

If I were President-all power would remain in His hands

If I were President-there’d be peace, not war on foreign sand

If I were President-God, not me would heal this entire land

If I, were President.
