'be At Peace With You'
Who are you?
If you look in the mirror do you like what you see?
Better yet do you love the reflection staring back at you?
Are you that man that is always the life of the party?
The same one that as soon as he is alone
He begins to wonder what the purpose of his life really is.
Are you that woman everyone wants to be around?
As soon as it turns to night
The web of loneliness spins itself so tight around you
That you struggle to breathe
If you don’t love that person in the mirror
You better get to know the real you
Not the reflection others see
Forget about outsiders’ expectations
Look at you
Learn to love that reflection in the mirror
When you got that down
It would be so easy to love every other part of you
