My real self
Playing back the scenes of my life I can across my battles and strife’s Never thought I can make it through Amidst the darkness and changing hue
My life’s been messed my soul’s been broken Criticized, as the book judged by its cover Sometimes outcasted and often forgotten By people who never knew what I have been
In love, hopeless romantic I am Yet never had the courage when heartaches come Always left in doubts and confusions Filled with many unveiled questions
With these, I stood up and took a stride Even if I stumbled against my pride For who I am and what I’ll gonna be No one must take my real self from me
Maybe I have failed, but not a failure A part time loser yet a persistent survivor You can condemn me for what your eyes see But you can not trade me with anything or anybody!
