---HIVE OPEN MIC WEEK 212

Words are singularly the most powerful force available to humanity. We can choose to use this force constructively with words of encouragement, or destructively using words of despair. Words have energy and power with the ability to help, to heal, to hinder, to hurt, to harm, to humiliate and to humble.

Song lyrics

"The World's Greatest"

It's the world's greatest, y'all
It's the world's greatest
The world's greatest

I am a mountain
I am a tall tree, oh
I am a swift wind
Sweepin' the country
I am a river
Down in the valley, oh
I am a vision
And I can see clearly

If anybody ask you who I am
Just stand up tall
Look 'em in the face and say

I am a giant
I am an eagle, oh
I am a lion
Down in the jungle
I am a marchin' band
I am the people, oh
I am a helpin' hand
I am a hero

If anybody ask you who I am
Just stand up tall
Look 'em in the face and say

In the ring of life, I'll reign love
And the world will notice a king
Where there is darkness I'll shine a light
And the mirrors of success reflect in me

I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the world's greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's against the ropes
I can feel it
I'm the world's greatest
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the world's greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my back's against the ropes
I can feel it
I'm the world's greatest

I saw the light
At the end of a tunnel
Believe in the pot of gold
At the end of the rainbow
And faith was right there
To pull me through, yeah
Used to be locked doors
Now I can just walk on through

It's the greatest
Can you feel it?
Say the greatest
Can you feel it?

I saw the light
At the end of a tunnel
Believe in the pot of gold
At the end of the rainbow
And faith was right there
To pull me through, yeah
Used to be locked doors
Now I can just walk on through
Hey
Uh hey
It's the greatest
I'm that star up in the sky
