Be Free
Why be content to live a mediocre life
Don't stifle yourself
Always pleasing others
in the end, we have only ourselves
Rushing, here and there
Some are afraid to look within
So content, or so it seems. with what life has presented them
But life didn't hand it on a silver platter
It was chosen
We make the decisions on our course
In the morning, off to work
Are you happy
Fullfilled
Do you say yes
When you really long to scream no
Are you the abiding child
Is your spouse your true love
Is it easier to just go through the motions of life
Instead of being faithful to you
One life we have
To be true to ourselves
Who we really are
Look deep, very deep within
Find the soul that longs to live in a world you can call your own
Learn about you
Be free
