I Am the Best Me I Can Be


The best me I can be

May someday live in poverty

A restless soul with nothing but a heart

Nothing that hasn't been torn apart

The best me I can be

May someday live in a mansion

But despite what is in my wallet

I will keep my compassion 

The best me I can be may one day serve our nation

I may become more than just an ordinary patron

I may save a life, and help those overseas

Whom defend Christ and want nothing but liberty

The best me I can be

May one day be a mother of three

Someone that my children can look up to in order to suceed

The best me I can be is me

Who I am

I am a sister

I am a daughter

I am someone who can love one another

I am young

I am strong

I may try to right the wrong

But the best me I can be

Is who I am currently

And although I will grow

I will remember which seeds to sew

The seeds that sprout joy in which the world may need

Therefore I am me,

the best me I can be.
