Best You

Best you

I have been wondering where you’ve been

Has it been comfortable in your skin

What’s the substitute

For this absolute

Living hasn’t been too kind

You often felt like you’re behind

Of the leader's race,

But you kept your pace

Not anyone will best you

I’ve got proof

Not anyone will best you

No

Not anyone will best you

I’ve got proof

Not anyone will best you

No

Whispered dreams kept you afloat

Many trapped inside your throat

But you made it here

So don’t disappear

Many hands have let you

Many friends turned into foe

Made your love a play

Made your summer gray

But you rose,

From their blows

Turned the pain they gave you

Into prose

Made your fear
