You Gotta Be Who You Are

Contributed by WestCPunk on Friday, 27th August 2004 @ 07:43:07 PM in AEST
Topic: MiscPoems



***
Don't act like you know me
Your assumptions are ghastly
Don't judge me by what you see
You have no clue what it's like to be me
All you do is talk sh!t
You're jealous admit it
No one's perfect
I may have not lived my life yet
But I know i've made a dent
You gotta live life for the moment
There's always gonna be people around
To bring you down
But i'ma try my best
To make my dreams come true
I'ma be better than all the rest
I'm gonna do
What I was destined to do
I may not be cool to you
I may seem invisible to you
I may not have the friends that you do
But tommorow's a brand new day
And i'ma continue to live my life
My way
And if it doesn't include you
Then that's okay
I can't help the fact that this is the way I turned out
This is the route
I chose to take
What you see isn't fake
Everyones got problems
Life has tons of outcomes
You learn many lessons
And walk in many directions
But you can't hide a scar
You gotta be who you are!

::applauds:: very true and excellent write. most people in your life wont actually matter, sure they influence you a little, but its your choice to let them do so. but while you live in the moment think of the future. because as you said there are tons of outcomes and not thinking could ead you to all the bad ones.

well people are assumptious and humans have made many advancements because of that in many different areas such as science. they dont realize that for everytime they are right, they are wrong in so many other ways.

good luck with making your dreams come true, you have the motivation and the passion to succeed in whatever you take on in life. =]
