Analysis of We Are



We are the believers,
the dreamers,
the achievers,
we are the future in the making.
We are the living,
the truthful,
the giving,
our lives we are forever staking.
We the artists,
the talented,
the smartest,
we are the new ideas waking.
We are the mathematicians,
the writers,
the musicians,
we are the average breaking.
I am the believer,
the dreamer,
the achiever,
I am the future in the making.
