So you think you are all that
For the moment let me retract
You see me and think I am nothing
But what you don’t know, I have a base
Its called respect face to face
I have achieved in life
I don’t need anyone’s advice
Accomplishment is a given right
I don’t have to cultivate nor be polite
I am a person who was created from Heaven
I am the blessing behind the praise
Wisdom and Understanding that came from the amaze
While you think you are on top of the world
It’s Heaven that makes my spirit and inspiration swirl
My knowledge is from the Holy ONE
This is what makes me stand out and being distinguished among
You on the other are loss in the crowd trying to find your way
But I am guided above and have direction without going astray
So no need to be on your high horse
Remember being a snob a horse can rebel in force
Keep you nose straight being parallel with respect
That sophistication has no elect
It shows mannerisms that fall under reject
You are not better than me
Don’t be a show off for all too see
Be a person who is satisfied with a positive vision
Have thoughts that are within reason
But always remember, “You are not all that until God makes you all that”.
