Be Yourself

You can't ever look past the
Way that you yourself felt
Talk to yourself, well
That's the meaning of self help
And don't beat yourself up in
The pursuit of self happiness
'Cause half the battle's
Asking passionately just what "happy" is

Take some time off to
Self-reflect and self-measure
Sometimes you need to be self-centered
To understand yourself better
I'm feeling self-possessed without the
Selfishness of self-obsession
But if I do this for myself and no one else
Then it is self-expression
Self-confident, in that I'll never
Let myself forfeit every word I write
I'm certain I'm just
Painting a self-portrait
And to all the self-destructive people
Who feel they'll never be themselves again
Just know I understand that
Self-inflicted pain is self-defense

So don't sell yourself short or
Label yourself as stupid
Because when you've hit rock-bottom
Every movement is a self-improvement
