Just be You

You make me sick the way you just
Stand there and contradict yourself.
It's all about you right?
Who really gives a shit about any one else?
You claim to be so warm,
So full of confidence and purity.
On the outside that is...
But inside behind closed doors
You're a miserable lump of insecurity.

Why do i care what people think?
How can i make them like me?
What can i do to make them happy?
These are the questions running
Through your head all day long.
Are you that afraid of being an individual?
That scared to stand alone?

The people you think are cool
Are just a bunch of weaklings
Who found a leader who is just as big a fool!
None of them can think for themselves
So they look for validation in someone else.
News flash...they are carbon copies,
Followers,people with no goals.

The reason why they don't like you
Is because you are the opposite
Of what they believe in,how they think
And what they stand for.
You are different,and doesn't that
Translate into being misunderstood?
You keep letting them distract you
By thinking it's bad rather than good.
How lame is that?!

Use that to your advantage now
So in the future you can show
The next insecure person how.
Grow a backbone and some tough skin.
Give those critics something to critique.
Let them know it takes opposition to win!
