Self Empowerment


People try to bring you down,

Just tell them no,

People try to make you feel low,

Just tell them no.

 

It takes two to tango,

But only one to crush your spirit,

No matter what they say just remember,

Only you can bring yourself down.

 

Don't stand for hatred,

Just for support,

Always live life for love,

So don't be brought down,
