I’m not sure if you realise
I’m not sure that you see
When people say these simple words
“Be just what you want to be”
They aren’t talking about being an astronaut
Nor being a farmers wife
But all about the choice you have
On how you live your life
Like never looking backwards
Regretting things you’ve done
If you’ve feel you’ve made bad choices
Just make some better ones
If you’ve treated people badly
Then realised you were wrong
Then just treat people better
Accept, then move along
If you’re always looking backwards
Instead of changing who you are
You’re really just not fixing things
Nor getting very far
There’s things in life that make us sad
And sadness has it’s need
But be sure to let the sadness out
Don’t let your life it lead
Anger, sadness, jealousy
These things are normal too
But just don’t let these feelings
Be the whole of you
Give them time and feel them
Let them do their thing
But don’t put your heart inside their cage
And forget to let it sing
You can be anything you want to be
Happy, sad or cross
Feeling empathetic
Sometimes feeling lost
All these things are normal
They’re things that we all feel
So don’t be feeling guilty
Give “you” some time to heal
You CAN be what you want to be
There is no right or wrong
Every single persons soul
Is singing their own song
