There’s a story you tell, that’s holding you back
Repeated so much, you believe that it’s fact
The words you repeat are so set in your head
Born through what others did or they said
I’m not enough to be loved or I just don’t fit in
I’m too quiet, too loud, too large or too thin
I’m not clever, not cool, I don’t think I’m liked
I’m trapped within darkness and cannot see light.
I will never achieve or ever progress
I feel like an imposter, this I must confess
I have a desire to break out and be free
But everyone is so much better than me.
This story you have is an idea that you grew
Growing up as you tried to make sense of the world and you
You did the best with the knowledge you had
But the story you have is making you sad.
Let go of stories that diminish your soul
Let go of what people said or what you’ve been told
Know that your story was just an interpretation
And fictional words don’t bring gratification.
Choose to look for the good within you
Decide to believe what is really true
It doesn’t matter what you have been through or what you have heard
It’s never too late to change stories or words.
For you are a being with a beautiful light
Start seeing your gifts and give up the fight
I see your potential, I see the real you
Isn’t it about time that you saw it too?
