It’s the same routine,
Why haven’t you done this?
Why haven’t you done that?
But then I have to remind myself
THEY are not me,
THEY are not living for my dream.

Easy to judge,
Because THEY  don’t know my story.
Easy to criticise,
When the people you know give you all the glory.
But yet THEY bring me down,
Put yourself in my shoes and stop being so mean.

Same thing everyday,
But attempted every single different way,
Trying to get noticed,
But somehow always rejected.
Finally feel like you see progression,
THEY are praying that you don't get the attention.

Focus on yourself,
And where you want to be,
THEY should never affect you or your self-esteem.
Not pretty enough to model,
Not smart enough to teach,
Just know that you are good enough to me.

You can do anything you want,
And be anything you want to be.
You may not be the best you at this time,
But I promise you THEY will notice you.
And THEY will realise it was all apart of your scheme.
