Accepted


To accepted yourself
is to understand yourself 
to become anew 
acceptance 

a condition

with a
mission
to create a new mindset
to send one message
be you 
embrace your world
mama  says
you will never become something 

when you fake for those who dont fully understand


and for those who are blinded 

they will neve make it out of the shadowz


and won't make
it to the other side
to my surprise
I never knew
that i too was hidden in the shadow land 
i needed to open my eyes and arise 
well let's call this
destitute of vision
I'm sorry instagram and snapchat 
but you will no longer blind my people
talking about the self love

and self understanding 
that comes with your reign
will it's time
for a change
because I'm apart
of a movement
that doesn't blind others 
 to the fact that we need to love ourselves
but our main goal
for every boy and girl
is to make
responsible men and women
who will love themselves and start 
a nation
and put the self hating war
to ending
