My Way
I stand my ground, don’t give way
To anybody or what they say
I have my own thoughts inside my mind
I try to be respectful, honest, kind
Because I know what bullies can do
To my own self I try to be true
I don’t give in to my other peers
Who stink up the world with their insults and jeers
And when someone does something dumb
I’m not there, cause I don’t do that slum
No one can tell me how to act
I’m my own person, and that’s a fact
I’m the boss of myself and set my own tone
No evil outsiders can penetrate my zone
I’m proud of my stubbornness, and love my fire
That can stave off the questions that inquire
Whether I would do something bad with friends
I’m always on guard, for it never ends
I’m perfect because I speak for myself
I put all the temptations high on a shelf
I never give up, I never give in
For when I say no I always win
