Be True To Yourself

I wake up in the morning to see.

The sun shineing all over me.

I know this will be a pleasent day.

I want to find a good person some way.

For I am being myself, I don't pretend.

And I am like that always in the beginning and the end.

I don't know about all of you.

But for myself I am true

I would do anything to help you out.

No time to make a shout.

I am a man with a pure heart.

In this life, I will do my part.

All of this I say to you.

Get to know me for I am a man who is true.

The wrong person to lie to is ofcourse yourself, as you have indicated. For how can we be true to others, without being first true to ourselves. First requirement for having a pure heart. God bless, Sincerely Moses WELCOME TO SOUP.
