Poem
Who I'm not I'm not who people label me to be I am me unapologetically I'm not the bottom of the barrel I'm not the dirt I'm not useless I know my worth I'm not an ordinary person I am me the uncut unraw, the unedited version I'm unscripted My words will keep you uplifted I'm gifted I got talent It can cut deep. Can you handle it Who I'm not Let me tell you Once you learn It won't fail you Let me get Out my Comfort Zone Let me elevate To where I belong Let me wipe my tears Let me dry my eyes Let me be great To My surprise I've had ups and downs Downs and ups Did a lot of things Never got stuck Was it luck No, it was a blessing Lessons learned I learned my lessons I did a lot Can't make excuses Excuses I won't make You have to be a risk taker Risks you will take No matter if you have a lot On your plate Know that God doesn't make mistakes He will give you a clean slate Make you clean Start over if you know what i mean For every person and everything who did you wrong God is about to make you strong ?? Turn your trials into triumphs Turn your life around Don't let what others say and how they see you put you down You are awesome, and you are great Keep God first And everything else will follow That's the honest truth ?? Give it all you got Let people know who you are not Who I'm not Let me tell you Once you learn It won't fail you (Repeat until chorus fades) Written by Concetta Hardnett 04/19/2025
