Worth


Expectations are a misconception of reality 
Brought together by fairy tales in relation 
To love,family all above 
Of that white picket fence with a pet right along 
But why can't we be dependent of ourselves and look for love later on 
To move among the men who try to tower over us 
The only way to move up is to marry up 
In an arrangement brought together by 2 unloved hearts 
Never knowing one another 
Only hearing 1 before the other
Told it's okay love will soon come along 
But their wrong misery is there and it's the 3rd company in a horrible relation brought upon 
No more fairy tales for you baby girl 
Cause all you wanted was to move along 
Forgetting where you came from 
Or how you got there 
Not having a worry who you hurt in the way 
No shoulder to cry on but yours now 
Cause all the friends you had you forgot them 
Never forget the love you had for those who were there when you were down 
Cause new friends are not always bad but are not always good 
So be a better you but never forget the old you 
Cause your great the way you are no doubt about it 
But no one is perfect so keep at it 
Your positive so keep going your almost there on the prize 
But do not let life past you by 
Take risks keep at 
You at the best baby girl 
Do not let anyone change your mind 
Cause your a precious diamond 
Full of so much wonder and love
