Take a minute and look at yourself
Have you done the things you’ve wanted?
Or are your plans on a shelf?
Feared of being taunted?
For something you want to do.
Don’t worry about what they have to say, they don’t know the real you.

Don’t worry about tomorrow,
When you're only at today.
There’s no part of your life that can be borrowed.
So just don’t waste it away.
Because it’s your life,
And that’s not the purpose.
And maybe if you live it right.
It will all be worth it.

So instead of looking at the bad,
Focus on the good.
Don’t think about the things you should of had,
Because if you needed them you would.
Life shouldn’t be based on what you want,
Nor based on what others have to say.
Through out your life you’ve been taught.
To look the other way.

So why don’t you make that connect,
Put together the things you have learned.
Because in the end you will be the one that it will affect.
So stand up because it’s your turn.
