Don'T Lose Yourself

Don’t lose yourself in a meaningless relationship.
Don’t lose yourself trying to make things fit.
Don’t lose yourself being too bold.
Don’t lose yourself living in the past.
Don’t lose yourself thinking that everything you have now will last.
Don’t lose yourself do what is best for you.
Only do what you like.
Don’t stop doing what you’re doing to better someone else’s life.

Only you and the Father know what’s best.
Forget about the comments from the rest.
At the moment, you may not know what fits your taste.
Take some time out of your busy schedule,
And give yourself a test.
In the meanwhile, don’t lose yourself in a deadbeat job.
Don’t lose yourself with anything at all.
Find, regain, redo, react or whatever you need to do yourself.
Then change yourself from worse to bad and from bad to good.
Just remember, don’t lose yourself, if you lose your identity,
You’ll be stuck forever in your handmade woods.
Looking back over your life wishing if I only could.
