BE YOURSELF
The world would like to change you;
There are pressures all around.
You must decide just who you are,
Then firmly stand your ground.

You have an image of yourself,
An ideal sense of you;
And to this vision you must always
Struggle to be true.

You know what you are good at,
And you know where your talents lie;
But if you’re ruled by others,
Your uniqueness could pass by.

Remember, there is much to learn;
But all new things aren’t good.
Wisdom lies in what you’ve learned
And what you have withstood.
