Being Me is the Key

my dancing feet were quite the treat
were so happy, they were almost sappy
they lifted up my soul, an easy fete
I have a musical heart like my pappy

I was singing as I traipsed down the street
spinning in a rhythm only I could hear
joyful in every corner, my brain so sweet
I am one to fear, yes, one to fear

You cannot take away my positivity
I surround myself with music and art
It is mine alone, mine to nurture, you see
this gives me a marvelously happy heart

I cannot advise anyone else how to live
For me, there is only one way though
But here is a tip….learn to sacrifice and give
It nurtures me down to my heartfelt soul

I am twirling and whirling with pure happiness today
The trick for me is to always be the best of myself
no one can take my enthusiasm or joyfulness away
If I get sad, I turn my feelings around and feel something else

Chorus
Spinning, winning, whirling, my heart swirling
Being me is the key, it makes me happy, you see
No one can take my joy away, it is truly twirling
I am the best me, I am the best me!
