I'M Me
I am me
I am me
I am me
But he doesn't know me
Although close to me
A multi faceted being is me
That I have become
Come closer, you will see all in me
Tis what others see
Most they see is inborn in me
This is me, a peculiar being
He made me so
In me it flows
In me He flows
He told me so
Be told I am that being, I am me
Learn from me as I did from him
He sent him to me so that I can be me
Let me mentor you
He mentored me
Now you can see how I became me
He made us same
Different and unique we are
In our different ways
Learn and build you
You can be a better you
But,You can never be me for I'm me
I am me
I am me
I am me
But he doesn't know me
Although close to me
I am me
I can only be me
I am me
Be a better you
I am a better me
Because I am me.
I saw in me long before I became me.
I saw through the eyes of who followed me
And if not for them I couldn't have been me
In what they saw in me because sometimes before now I saw me as a waste
But now I bow in respect for them because they brought it back into me
That I'm me, and I can only bring out the best in me when I'm me
I am me
I am me
I am me
But he doesn't know me
Although close to me
If he can't see by now
Then he can never see I'm me and bow
Because I'm proud that that I am me
Tis me against the world
I am me
I am me
I am me
But he doesn't know me
Although close to me
Oh what a shame, that you were held so close
But did not know me like others did
Not sorry, I'm me and can only be me.
You can't be me, I am me.
