Look To Yourself
When brightness is fading and the darkness appears,
Hope is all gone and nothing is clear,
The answers’ are inside to help you grow strong,
So look to yourself and you’ll never go wrong.
When life seems a struggle and sadness takes place,
The smile that once shone now a frown on your face,
Tears falling like rain while heartache takes hold,
Just look to yourself and you’ll never grow cold.
When people are judging and not lending a hand,
Criticizing your nature because they don’t understand,
Just take a deep breath and come back with a smile,
When you look to yourself you can run any mile.
When negative energies are pushed onto you,
You’ve lost who you are, positive feelings are few,
Dispel it with love and your strength deep within,
If you look to yourself you’ll be sure to win.
So always remember when you lose your way,
Confusion sets in and peace has now strayed,
To look to yourself and hear that true voice,
Its there if you listen, to help make a choice,
Just waiting to lift you and fill you with love,
A positive glow from our friends up above.
So know in your heart that you’re never alone,
Just turn to the light, the place I call home.
