BE YOU


Life life It always has forces Not everyone will apprehend what you say Even as I speak now, someone's thinking "Oh shut up!"Or "really? NO!" Well that's life... So you just have to face it Fight the good fight Do your best...and don't let it's forces bring you down Believe me you have the power to resist and move on. You just have to discover it. Believe in your self and in what you do.. Have the confidence.. Otherwise.. Life is like a magnetic field.. There are always forces pulling you either way All you have to do is fight to remain at the centre And generate the energy that proves you're a fighter Or else you'll let negativity enter Then anxiety...that devil He'll make you feel like hell Make you question your every move and word Until you'll find yourself in a ward Sick of self-doubt Start visiting the therapist? But that won't help if you can't be your own therapist I mean..who knows you more than yourself? You understand yourself.. And you know what to do to clean your shelf Now don't get me wrong... I didn't say man is an island.. Am just saying...what you see in yourself is what others will zoom So speak to yourself Believe in yourself.. Design who you want to be Build who you want to be Fight and become who you want to be And that's what people will see No one defines you YOU define your self So.if you can't...who Will? Fight the good fight Priests don't have to lie at your funeral Yet you have a chance to leave a good legacy Fight...it'll be worth it all after all
