Rusted Root - Send me on my way

And no holding back

"May what I do flow from me like a river,

no forcing and no holding back,

the way it is with children"

- Rainer Maria Rilke

James Ollier - Lifeboats

Souls instead of bodies

"If only our eyes saw souls instead of bodies. 

How very different our ideals of beauty would be"

Maria Mena - Homeless

To paint his personal city exhibits

"We go back to the building with the story of

The street artist and the girl that he loves

Going out on his night time visit

To paint his personal city exhibits

The District of Crimes as they call it now

The street artist depicts this the only way he knows how

He shows the city as no one knows

The festivals, the lights, the cultural shows

The diversity, the love, the mixing bowl

The love of his city as a whole

The piece of his heart, the art of his soul"

- Javairia Henry, "Graffiti"

Lost Frequencies - Are you with me

Walk unafraid

"The secret path I walk no more.

I’m not the same as I was before.

It’s amazing what was found there, 

with the realization someone did care."

First Kid Aid - Walk unafraid

She's an adventurer

"this gypsy heart

just needs to wander.

wander to undiscovered mountains

and caves that gaurd

the mysteries of this world.

i will unturn every stone,

i will walk every unpaved path,

i will dive through the darkest seas

just to discover the 

secrets

that were only meant for me"

James Bay - Hold back the river

Then you're there, in the tunnel, stuck in the dark

"There's always light after the dark. You have to go through that dark place to get to it, but it's there, waiting for you. It's like riding on a train through a dark tunnel. If you get so scared you jump off in the middle of the ride, then you're there, in the tunnel, stuck in the dark. You have to ride the train all the way to the end of the ride." 
- Han Nolan, Dancing on the Edge

Mumford & Sons - Lover of the light

And if the pow'rs of human virtue fail

"Here sleep the relics of an orphan flower,
Crush'd by the brutal foot of lawless pow'r;
Another victim to the thousands slain
Within the mighty slaughterhouse of gain.
O! come ye kind philanthropists, who feel
The noblest int'rests in the people's weal,
Pause on this infant-martyr's new turn'd grave, 
Swear to emancipate the British slave;
Tell the oppressor, that the widow's God,
Injustice, wields an all-avenging rod.
And if the pow'rs of human virtue fail,
The hand of heaven will certainly prevail."
- Death of a Factory Child, John Critchley Prince

As long as you spread the kindness

"i truly believe if we love enough
the earth will love us back. 
you are made of wind
and fire
and rain
and dust
and as long as you spread kindness
consistently and abudantly, 
the flowers and trees
will grant you freedom. 

your body will be so warm,
the sun will ask you to dance, 
and you will feel so wonderful, 
there is no way you
wouldn't say
yes."
- Christopher Poindexter, Naked Human.
