Note To Self
Don't let other people
Influence the decisions you make
Don't let other people's opinions
Hinder the risks that you take
Other people are not for you
They won't be there in the end
If they're not happy for you now
They won't be happy when you win
They don't want you to have joy
They only like when you're in pain
They want you to be like them
They want everyone to be the same
Not doing much
Same life, living low
No future, no aspirations,
No ambition, no goals
If you want to be different
You have to set yourself apart
You may hear their words
But don't take them to heart
Rise above the hatred
You know who you are;
You exceed expectations.
Note to self, you're a star.
