It is better to not speak and let people think you are a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Hope is good, hope is strong.
It will hold you through the fight.
Don't depend on hope all the time.
Let your mind apprehend,
learn to deal even though
crying is how you feel.
Reach for the stars,
don't hope for the reach.
Let this time teach you.
Take the step, find the depth.
Don't touch the gun,
you're not done.
Still young.
