*JUST BE YOURSELF*

The world would like to change you;

There are pressures all around.

You must decide just who you are,

Then firmly hold your ground.

You have an image of yourself,

An ideal sense of you

And to this vision you must always

Struggle to be true.

You know what you are good at,

And you know where talents lie;

But if you're ruled by others,

Your uniqueness could pass by.

Remember, there is too much to learn;

But all new things aren't good

Wisdom lies in what we've learned

And what we have withstood.

So be yourself and don't allow

The world to take control.

Preserving your identity

Is life's most precious goal.
