Coming Into Your Own

I hear that you’re saying that you’re trying to grow
Well it’s not impossible

Your smile is brighter and I can see your beautiful glow
Whatever you may need just let me know

It’s all about you, do what you do, just so you’ll know
I’m your friend, your guard and your crew

I heard that you’re more positive
Good for you, just the opposite

Of the one who use to cuzz and fight
I’m glad you left that life

I heard you got your PhD
Your Public High School degree

As in a diploma, you can do whatever 
You want like an Obama

It’s not about smarts, it’s about timing
Seeking and finding

Find your niche in life
And it will eliminate strife

Believe in yourself
And you’ll live a peaceful life
