The Real You


People see what you show, that's you You really aren't that person What they see is what they believe Do they understand why you act different? No because we're all different We have root causes which have behaviors I have many causes that make me Only some people know, trust My root causes can be fixed, time People see what I show them, behaviors Behaviors shape my relationships, friends The real me comes out in time
