Be Strong


Be who you are, not what you're not

Because not being you, might change you a lot.

The bad kids at school that tease you and laugh

will have nothing but themselves, and the sound of their rath.

Its overwhelming, i know

how they never seem to stop

but don't you join in, they're wrong and you're not.

you're ugly, you're dumb, you're stupid, you cry

these words hurt so much, but dont believe, they are lies.

Just be strong my friend, it'll end pretty soon

bc when it's over, you'll be the one with success to the moon.
