Paint Me Like I Am
I know this it is impossible to appease everyone
it always was
it always will be
I know this you have your own opinion
Which makes you unique
I know this your own gratification is most important
I think if you spend your life indulging in other’s expectations
There will be no room to fulfill your own
I think changing for others prevents the ability to find who you really are
(It is our loss.)
We need to listen to the thoughts
We need to hear the voice
We need to respect the desires
of ourselves
I know it’s human nature to care what people think
I know it’s hard to hear your heart when everyone’s words are so loud
I know self-respect is essential for happiness
We need to care about ourselves before anything else
We need self-love… We deserve self-love
We owe it to our souls to re-create our thinking
And find a way to dismiss what others expect
Paint Me care-free Paint Me imaginative Paint Me Aili
I am human.
