Motivation
They embarrassed and ridiculed me.
They made fun of everything I did that they could see.
They made my self-worth almost not even be.
They burned my self-confidence to the third degree.
After all this guess what I'm going to do?
I'm going to walk up to them and say thank you.
Through all their torment and rage,
They showed me that I needed to turn the page.
Too many time they crossed the line,
but each time I saw it as a sign.
They taught me a couple things, like never quit,
and the best way to predict your future, is to create it.
Now I see the best in the worst situation,
because you brought me nothing but frustration,
and I knew I had to be my own salvation.
You will never understand that all you were my motivation,
