Just Because

Just because 

Just because you speak 
In a certain vernacular 
Does not mean 
You can’t be 
 vibrant and spectacular 

Just because you’re from 
An older generation
Does not mean 
You can’t be 
an overnight sensation

Just because you’re the type
 that's very quiet and humble 
Does not mean 
your life will be 
full of faltering and stumble

Just because you 
Don’t wear no crowns
Or diamond rings 
Does not mean 
You can’t walk 
like you're  the  king
