A Transparent Mask
Be proud of what God made you
You are the only one he made that way
What do you have to hide?
Are you afraid everyone will see what you really do?
You are almost like night and day
Are you afraid someone will see your other side?
Are you good or bad, I don't know?
And I don't really care
Just be proud of what you really are?
You are just putting on a show
Who cares if they stare
But don't hide who you are
Don't be counterfeit, be real
Hiding will not get you anywhere
Beauty is only skin deep, the truth is in the heart
Shoes that don't fit have a certain feel
Honesty will buy you a meal
Look in the mirror and be smart
Rich or poor, give it all you have got
All you can do is do your best
It should be easy, not a hard task
God is not asking a lot
Every now and then, he will give you a test
Are you hiding behind a transparent mask
