If you allow yourself to learn as life grows with you
You learn that a flower starts off beautiful but dies over time,
the past should remain the past
It doesn't change over time
You can't expect everyone to love you, or think that you're great.
You need to be able too pick up all your down moments, and support your own weight.
A handshake doesn't mean a friend and an opinion doesn't mean a foe
Self respect is a key ingredient when you mix it into your *** of "new ways to grow"
Tears don't make you anyless of a man,
Fear is normal as you lay down and think to yourself at night,
It's the reality of things, it's what I have seen and experienced during this trip of life,
It is what it is, it's how you #Rise from your situations that allows you to continue to soar, that allows you to reach your destined height.
The #Rise continues this one is persona
