Me

"Me"

Out of all the things in the world I could be 
I have finally accepted 
It's best if I'm me 
A caterpillar who soon
Went into a cacoon
And to my surprise 
I went from crawling
to flying like a beautiful butterfly
I was a painting on the wall
that people considered graffiti
my words became intense 
and to the world more needy
I wouldn't consider it greedy
I would consider it hunger
I wish I was this hungry 
when I was younger 
a lesson learned 
time to reset 
time to experience the best yet 
Level up
with no regrets 
standards it's time to set 
elevation is a word 
that goes unheard 
so this is what I will do 
know the limit for myself is through the roof 
so which one will it be 
that choice is totally up to you
you see
I will just enjoy being me
