Be Your Own Strength

All my life i have been facing judgment People saying things about who i am They don’t really know me, just the image They really don’t know Marlon the father, the man They don’t know the genuine person that they look at They don’t read the book just judge the cover They don’t know Marlon Malcolm inside out The dedicated Husband and the lover Sometimes people are not always as bad as you think So before making assumptions try to know the human being Try to understand them and their personality and what’s inside Don’t go ahead and pass judgment because of what you have seen Because at one point you may be wrong and don’t know it Watch the movie don’t just say it’s lame just because of the trailer And don’t say i am weak and easy to tear apart Because my life was built for success i wasn’t designed to be a failure So this is a lesson to all who break down easily because of words Remember sticks and stones will break your bones but words will never hurt you Stay strong even in the roughest and toughest times my friend Even when the wicked raise up and start to curse you You are strong and you can be your own strength when the test comes Because people see what’s outside only you know what’s within So ladies stand firm in hard times take control be your own queen And men this is your own jungle so be brave and be your own king People will always be quick and speedy in judging you People will always try to put you down Even if they are strong enough to do it my friend You are stronger and you will bounce right back around By: Marlon A Malcolm
