What They See


Some people look and what do they see?

An overweight guy with ADHD.

They fail to see the truth from within,

It really doesn't matter if you're fat or thin.

Yes it's true, I have this condition,

but it's not who I am, just sit back and listen.

There are things in our lives we can not control,

like any obstical it takes its toll.

The true test of character is not what you see,

its how you deal that's who you'll be.

Find the strength to keep up the fight,

To turn something wrong into a right.

To find how to use it in a positive way,

Thats what I do every waking day.

There are people who look and see something less,

But those issues they see are what make me flawless.
