Look Into My Eyes

Look into my eyes and tell me what you see. 
Do you see generosity or do you see greed? 
Do you see admiration or do you see envy? 
Do you see a true friend or do you see an enemy? 
Do you see honesty or do you see me holding back what I really mean? 

Look into my eyes and truthfully tell me what you see. 
Do you see determination or do you see failure? 
Do you see isolation, or do you see me doing others a favor? 
Do you see accomplishments or do you see disaster? 
Do you see my career slowing down or do you see it going faster?

Look into my eyes one last time and tell me what you see. 
Do you see me being real 
being all that I can be
doing all that I can do
do you think i'll succeed? 
Do you see me as a good person 
acheiving my goals 
reaching for the stars 
fufilling my dreams? 
Do you see the inside and out 
do you see me for me? 
Tell me the truth do you like what you see?
