Hold your head up high gorgeous


On this journey I learned to gain confidence,

First graduation then college,

I have gain more knowledge and went to college,

It's better to have brains than beauty,

I stand up tall,

with my head held up high,

Thinking of everyone who help encouraged me,

because I will not be where I am today,

everything I accomplished,

I not only did it for myself,

but for my mommy,

I KNOW SHE IS LOOKING DOWN OVER ME,

and smiling,

I HAVE TO STAY STRONG,

so hold your head up high gorgeous,

this is not the end,

it's only the beginning.
